haiii. i’m 23 trans fem looking for fellow trans stategy gamers. huge civ fan !! tho 7 is meh. also play stellaris, red dragon, and much more :)

I’m 23 years old in NYC, and i started feminizing hrt coming up on 2 weeks ago! The changes are happening so fast, my friends and family don’t even recognize me anymore and the weight of my DDs has given me scoliosis…

*kidding.*

but in all seriousness my chest is a little sore which i didn’t expect so quick.

———————————————————————————
I’ve always been someone who had a small amount of very close friends, not a large group. i’m lucky that my closest friend knows i’m on HRT and is generally quite supportive. however, outside of him i don’t really have any friends… i didn’t really vibe with anyone in college, and my one friend i did i lost contact with in the year since graduation — also he was quite transphobic so maybe for the best.

**the main thing is:**
**i’m so early in my transition that i don’t really know who i am yet. im not out as she / her, my family knows im on hrt but still seems to think im a boy and he / him me. I feel too shy to tell them otherwise cause—i feel like i look the same to everyone. and truthfully, i think i feel the same a lot of the time too.**

i really want to make friends but it feels overwhelming since im so early on. making friends is hard enough for me as it is, but how do i present myself when meeting them? do i use a voice trained voice? wear makeup? am i a girl to them? a they them? Do i talk to them in the “bro” way im used to?and where do i even find people?

point is i’m lost and quite lonely. im already in therapy and don’t really want to go to a support group. ahhh

anyways, any advice would be greatly appreciated. i hope everyone had a great weekend 🫶
