6 months
6 months ago today, on the 2nd of August, 2025, I took my first dose of Estradiol, and Cyproterone. 6 months ago, I took the biggest step to becoming my best self with no idea as to what the future would hold. No idea what would happen, the wonderful people I'd meet, the mistakes I'd make, the changes that I'd see happening to myself, what I'd learn about this community, how we're treated societally... All in hopes of wanting to become the best me that I could be.
6 months ago today, I casted the person I once was astray, as I never felt fully happy being that person. I never felt confident living in a body I wasn't happy with. I never felt as if I was being 100% true to myself. I felt incomplete, and that finally being on HRT, and taking my first dose of Estradiol, and Cyproterone was the right thing to do.
6 months ago today, I took a leap of faith, hoping for the best, and despite how far I've come, and the challenges I've faced thus far, and will continue to face, I do not regret taking my first dose. This has been the single best decision that I've ever made, and I can't ever look back at who I once was thinking I was happy, because I wasn't.
6 months ago today, I decided to let my best self, become my permanent self.
Never give up on yourself... no matter how hurt you may be, or how hopeless you may feel... do it for yourself.
