I've been on HRT for just over 5 months now. bridget-vibe

Pros: It's been amazing, way better than I imagined. So many people said it's not gonna fix everything and things will still be difficult and it's not magic, but it definitely feels like magic to me. I have never in my life felt this happy or good about myself. It feels like things are finally sort of clicking into place.

Cons: Since boymoding makes me feel bad now, but I still have insecurities about going outside as a woman, I usually spend like 90+ minutes to get myself ready even if I'm just going to buy some groceries.

I'm 2 months longer on it than you, but this is still pretty much how I feel about it. Alhough I compensate for the readying time by prepping everything the night before and then rushing in the morning after I inevitably I oversleep every day.

I do try to decide what clothes I'm going to wear the night before. But make-up, skincare, shaving, etc., I have to do in the morning. Especially make-up I'm still not great at doing, so I need to take things slow or I'll just end up looking worse instead of better. Then I have a horrible habit of taking a million selfies afterwards to make sure things look okay and it's not just the mirror lying to me or something.
