I was a big fan of the franchise so it hurts but I have stopped supporting her in any way shape or form. My partner put on Fantastic Beasts the other day and I didn't say anything because I didn't feel like getting into it. I won't stop other people because I understand the nostalgia.

I'll third the Braun silk epil 9. It's great, battery life has never been an issue for me. Just make sure you charge it after every use.

The awkward phases can be very annoying but it's definitely worth it to battle through them. The first time I grew my hair I cut it because I couldn't stand it getting in my eyes all the time. I definitely regret that. It's past my shoulders now though and it's amazing.

I'm definitely over 18

Thanks. Yeah, fiancée while being supportive still took a bit to get used to it and my mom is struggling pretty hard with it but my brother is also trans so she is generally supportive. My grandparents are having a bit of an easier time with it but it's still a shock. I am the older "normal" one. Haha not anymore!

Awesome! Someone else here has theirs in a week too. Let us know how it goes.

It definitely wasn't hard to make the decision. I knew I wanted to go on HRT shortly after I started questioning my gender. The year and a bit since then has just been making sure and getting the people around me used to the idea with mixed success.

Something very important to remember is that everyone's journey is different. Don't think you need to fit in with the people who knew they were trans as a toddler, I certainly didn't.

Nice. I think I want to try sublingual. Have you heard of the shot helper thing? It's a little spiky thing that is supposed to distract you enough to barely notice getting a shot. You can get them on Amazon, maybe pharmacys have them but idk.

I'm so excited too! It's finally happening... well it'll start to happen sometime after a month from now but it's something!

That's exciting! You should let us know how it goes.

See you in 10 or 20 years when you are writing a long post about how much you regret this decision and all of the time you wasted. All you have to do is look at the many MANY other posts of people who did what you are planning on doing and regret it big time to know its true.
