I’m starting T in less than 2 weeks

I just finished up my most recent virtual appointment with my doctor, during which we went over my blood work, and I briefly met the nonbinary nurse who will be teaching me to administer it.

At the end of the appointment, my doctor told me that she will be putting in my prescription for testosterone today, and since it takes a week to be authorized, we’ll be scheduling my first injection for a little over a week from now.

As soon as I hung up, I got up and danced around and kicked the air--I looked like Pinocchio when he became “a real boy,” which is a little too fitting for this scenario. I didn’t know who to tell, but I felt like I wanted everyone to know.

After the initial celebration, I sat down, hit the bong, and really tried to process what this means for me. I’m officially starting my transition. In 2 weeks, my body will start putting things in motion so that, after 22 years of trying, I will finally start look like me. I will finally start to feel like me. I can barely articulate how liberating that knowledge is.

I do intend to do video updates throughout my transition, which I’m considering posting here (opinions? lmk)

Anyway, I know this is the first update I’ve posted in a while; I just couldn’t wait to share the news with you all.

Queers and allies, thank you for joining me on this journey.

Love and appreciation,

Syd

another thinkpiece about how i will never be happy with the way i look bc it’s me. and there’s certain things i will never be able to change. and i shouldn’t have to change to be comfortable. but even if i did get surgery to change my face or if i lost a bunch of weight or whatnot, i’d never be happy. never.

i think about that a lot.

Mikie is at his friends house and I’m very impatiently waiting on him to come home because I miss him and I’m sleepy. I’m too clingy and I hate it. 😭 the only time I don’t want to be with him is when I need to clean (I like cleaning alone, idk why). I really love this man & I can’t wait to “officially” (meaning legally) be his wife. He’s my forever.
