Throughout the years, there has been growing support and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community, and while efforts have been made, there still is much confusion rampant through society that could use explaining.
When I first started questioning myself and who I really was, I, like anyone else, naturally had many questions and thoughts floating around in my head.
Through a fair amount of googling and watching YouTube videos, I came to the conclusion that indeed I was a transgender woman and set off to begin my transition.
Since 2018, I have been going about it, experiencing both the good, bad and the, very, very, ugly sides of it all. Being 19, I am fortunate to have started HRT (hormone replacement therapy) so early.
I am also lucky to not look and sound too masculine and have a supportive family and loads of friends.
Despite this, the struggle still is present and it will be years before I fully feel comfortable and at peace with myself.
I know that many are like me who are not quite sure how to go about transitioning. There are also many who would benefit from knowing more such as parents, friends, and the world in general.
This blog will serve as an insight into my transition and all of the details and processes associated with it - the tea if you may call it., in an ever-evolving life story.
For those that want to see what it's all about at a young age from the beginning; this is a blog worth following and reading up on.

I could never be able to imagine the confusion you felt before you made your discovery. I also cant imagine the emotional and physical pain you are experiencing during your transformation. These experiences are truly personal to you and the men and women like you. I really appreciate you sharing your struggle and journey with us. Its a truly brave thing you are doing and will help inform the general public about the struggle trans people go through.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the very supportive and kind comments <3
DeleteI've indeed been through a lot like many others and will share the tea in the upcoming posts. Stay tuned for more <3
Your blog is very nicely creative in how you arranged the graphics, colors and pictures. You seem to have a really good sense of putting all of those elements together in an easy to read, colorful way. I also like how you want to reach out to others and help them.
ReplyDeleteI went through great effort to make the site nice and easy to use so I am glad that you took notice of it. I also like how you pointed out how I want to help others. From what I know about blogs, they're meant to help people like a service/product and not just be a way to talk about how your life is. Blogs have been trending in the progressive direction for years as far as I am aware so I wanted mine to reflect that.
DeleteI can appreciate this blog simply for being apart of the LGBTQ+ community myself. I love the fact that you are so open about your journey. It also give me insight into the struggle behind being a trans-woman or man for that matter. I admire your strength and transparency.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the love! It's always nice to see another person part of the community, also indeed I am open about it, mainly because I centered the whole blog about it. Usually I'm not that open about it aside from talking to friends and family about it, but in the case of the blog, it's a good topic to talk about.
