I agree! there`s been some lovely answers so far ❤️ Happyfeets first answer almost started me off in tears too because I remeber that feeling well.
Poli you Will do all that, And more! in fact you`ll be surprised how quickly these things will become the new normal for you

a note on the Dysphoria aspect that may be helpfull to keep in mind, even though it won`t take it away, it will hopefully give you a little peace on mind that comes from Perspective.

Being a girl is in itself quite dysphoric! (and I have no idea what causes this, maybe Societal pressures?), but the constant, This isn`t right, That doesn`t look good enough, ok lets try a different `X` and see how that looks, "I`v got nothing to wear!!!", the whole `bad hair day` thing, and much much more!
are a form of dysphoria, but also a very Normal one! and it can often and very easily be confused with the dysphoria We feel as trans people, but it`s Not the same! and sometimes it`ll feel like you haven`t moved on at all, when in actual fact you have, you`re just confusing the 2
Also... there`s Age as well, esp us older girls like myself, we will look in the mirror and greive for what could have been, that our days of being young and pretty will never happen, you`re Old and ugly, and no matter how much makeup you put on you`ll be "mutton dressed as Lamb" etc... now while the FACTS are real, the rest of it is Lies!
there are many many women out there that still look good at your age, and you can too! it`s something All women experience at some point, it`s only a little harder for us because we never were young women, but deal with what you Have got and make it work FOR you! Old does Not mean you don`t pass generally, it just means you don`t pass as Young. and again, this is Not the same dysphoria we feel as trans people so try to not confuse the 3.


So.... Julie, what would You do sweetie? xx
