I want

I(24 mtf, 7months hrt, not out yet) just finished my final semester of classes at uni. I have to apply for graduation by Friday or wait for the next one. The next cut-off date is in November, and I REALLY hope that I'll be comfortable to be out by then.

The main issue is my name on the diploma, I know I could get it updated later, but for some reason having my new name at the graduation ceremony is something I cant stop thinking about.

I'm not sure what to do, get graduation over and done with as a dude, OR wait until later to graduate when I'll hopefully be more myself.

Has anyone else been in a situation like this?

I'm(24mtf) tall and have a face, thats about all I needed to feel attractive as a man. But now I've been on hormones for almost 7 months and I'm realising that my face may not change as much as I was expecting. Same thing with my body, but I have a little more hope for fat redistribution in that area.

I'm really trying to avoid wanting cosmetic surgery because watching Botched and Embarrassing Bodies as a kid messed me up.

How do I feel ok with how I look? I feel like my self esteem is the lowest it's ever been.

I've had 5 voice training sessions that are covered with my plan, but I still don't feel like my voice is even close to sounding feminine. I've tried watching video tutorials, but I'm not sure what the actual problem is with my voice, so I don't know what to search to solve it.

Do I just bite the bullet and spend $150+ on another speech pathologist session? What are my options?

I'm (24mtf) having trouble finding my voice while voice training. I really feel like I'm losing my accent and instead bouncing between Californian and British.

Does anyone have any ideas for Australian actors or other famous people I could try to model my voice on? I'm kind of going for a deeper feminine voice. Has anyone else had this experience?
