The real difficulty in doing a #TransitionTimeline is finding pictures of myself pre-transition where I'm not making an absolutely absurd face. Had to go back to 2018 for this one!
If you’re a really supportive ally and find yourself passionately reading as many #TDOV and #TransitionTimeline posts as you can, I made this for you for next year:
Four months since I was finally honest with myself and came out as trans. I think you can see that I am pretty happy about my life now, when compared to before.
Last year at Game-itoba I worried that I’d look weird and awkward, as it was my first game convention en femme and I was only two months into HRT. This year I just worried whether my voice would hold out all day. (It did.) #TransitionTimeline
For the last year, I've been taking a selfie every day (without makeup, even!). Now I've turned them into a timelapse video so you can see a whole year of HRT changes in a little over thirty seconds.
I have been looking forward to sharing this for so long, I hope y'all enjoy it. :)
Two years apart. 26.5 months on gender-affirming hormone therapy. Crown hair fully regrown, hair length increasing, curls I never knew I had. Facial features continuing to change. 49.5 years old. #transitiontimeline#transover40
I don't know whether this'll help any other trans folks or not, but I just wanted to show what's possible within a short period of time.
The left side of the image is from September 2021. It's one of the 1st selfies I took after coming out as trans in April 2021. The right is from just today. I've only been on HRT since Hallowe'en 2021.
I figured I'd get in on this. The left is me in 2013. The right 2023. A divorce, almost 3 years HRT, two countries, an ocean, a career change and a loooot of paperwork between us. #transitiontimeline#glowup#transjoy#trans#lgbt
