You're welcome.
The most unexpected part must be the freedom I've found.
I started because I felt sad that I'd never be able to go to the store as myself. That my entire life would be online or alone out hiking. So you see I was just trying to alleviate the sadness.
And I think that's what a lot of people see when they see me. This suffering. But actually transitioning is a great thing. Suddenly you have all this freedom and a sense of relief.
Finding friends and love has become easier too.
