I made the mistake of visiting the transfem fashion subreddit, and saw page after page super cute girls in pretty dresses, with flat tummies, and perfect makeup, and no awful body hair like mine. So I’m kinda struggling today.

Ugh. Been there, had to unsub from transtimelines and other subreddits (before I stopped using reddit) for this exact reason. I hope the rest of your day is much better :(

AAAAAAAAAAH

Damn mirror is faulty, still shows a beard every morning. Gotta put a complaint in, this is not the replacement I ordered.

That being said though, I’m feeling pretty good. I came out to most of my family and close friends, and so far they’ve all been supportive, which is the absolute best thing I’ve ever ended a year on.

Nonetheless, this next year is pretty daunting already, with all I want to do with it. But that’s a problem for tomorrow :D

Have you picked a new name yet, or how’s that going, or is it gonna be miss Brainfart? 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈 🌈

Brainfart is certainly what describes me as a person best

Hey Brainfart, so why don’t you get your facial hair lasered?

I couldn’t stand mine either. Like one of those things you have to do twice a day and just pretend you don’t exist and force yourself through it.

I was hosptitalized for severe suicidal thoughts late December due to my ex partner making me relive some childhood trauma. Now they rejected me again for new years celebration. At least with the year starting at its absolut worst, it can only get better right?

It’s one of those things where it’s good to really face it and to make a clear decision because it makes life easier if you know. It’s said that the decision to live or die is the most fundamental philosophical question.

And ya it’s definitely gonna get better! It’s just a temporary thing and it doesn’t define you.

Yeah, I working things out, my perspective on whats to come is pretty amazing compared to what shitshow I’m currently in, coming out to myself really helped and gave me my will to live back. It’s been really rough but I really think that I hit rock bottom already and I’m alredy getting out of my pit.

Reassurance is very helpful, thank you

Perhaps twenty years from now you’ll be in a garden drinking wine with someone you love, talking about what happened today.

Well I just got some new nail polish and painted my nails with trans pride colors and that was fun. I also tried some ghost pepper hot sauce today and that was less fun.
