I initially came out in 2016, then repressed myself and convinced myself I was okay being cis, then covid hit. I came back out in 2021, started HRT and I have no regrets

Came out in 2018, and then was able to get hormones and surgery during the Biden presidency

Technically I told one person irl (along with my therapists) but I don’t really count that just cause 1 they’re therapists and 2 I don’t interact with that person much anymore it was more an old friend

As a trans girls who came out pre Covid so many of these lockdown transitioners are unrelatable
