From the peak of my depression weight (Nov '17, 8 months pre-hrt), nearly a cracked egg, to an amazing date night with @becoming_sassyqueen this weekend (Jan' 20, a week shy of 18 months HRT).... Euphoria visualized. - As @ohkayla_rose put it, you can see on the left a smirk... It's of a pained attempt at confidence that was utterly missing. What she saw in the mirror was about as wrong as it had ever been. The perplexing thing about this memory is that I vividly recall taking this photo. I knew I looked scraggly, but I was excited about my new coat! - This... was genuinely the face of excitement... That's just sad. Well, anyway... I hope it is as clear to you as it is to me that the girl on the right is a far happier human. - Go out and be your best self. One day you'll look back on attempts at "happiness" and chuckle at just how little you knew about the term. 💖 Jewlz . . #euphoria #gendereuphoria #TransgenderTimeline #TransitionTimeline #TransitionTuesday #hrt #estrogen #hormones #hormonereplacementtherapy #transgirl #transgirlsofInstagram #thisiswhattranslookslike #mtf #transisbeautiful #girlslikeus #wontbeerased #WeWillNotBeErased #transvengers #TransVisibility #TransPositivity #RelentlessOptimism #JewlzStories (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7lVEf-H9Lh/?igshid=1c1d6bctk7ybc
