This tiktok about someone’s pre-transition self is so so SO tender and I just want anyone who has transitioned and may be mourning their old self to see this and to know it’s okay. It’s okay to miss that person you once were, it’s okay to wish you had embraced what you had and who you were before transitioning. It doesn’t mean you regret it, and it doesn’t mean you made the wrong decisions.

It’s okay to think about that person, it’s okay to mourn them, and it’s okay to wonder. The person you were before transitioning may have been a trick of the light, but it doesn’t mean they weren’t special while they were here.

Everyone’s experience is different... but if you find yourself feeling this, just know it’s okay. You don’t have to completely block out every aspect and memory of who you were before. It’s okay if you do, but you don’t have to.

Starting to realize I’ve been trans for a while. I recently realized I’ve been binding for four years. I knew I was trans in 2017. My parents clocked me in 2019. And yet I’m still going slow, and going in a queer order. My hair is long. I dress however I want. There are girl pictures on my instagram. I’m taking my own time and trying to figure out when I’m doing something for me or for other people.

And yet I still want to punch visible famous trans people who speed run transition. There’s enough transition to go around, yet this true envy of gender seeps in (Yes, I’ve watched the contrapoints video). I followed these people of my own volition, when they thought they were cis. I watched them discover nonbinary identity, and binding, and testosterone. They get top surgery and I want to throw my phone. “I WAS HERE BEFORE YOU!” I want to scream. People ask them for advice on being trans now, and I get misgendered in public.

In 2020 they looked completely different. In 2020 I was still a nonpassing grindr trans guy, like I was in 2018. There’s been big shifts for me between those, but they don’t feel seen.

Idk, hopefully someone can relate
