One week post op today

today I looked at my self uncovered in the mirror for the first time

i think my surgeon did a great job and it will be goals once healed

but that was so scary!!!

i'm honestly grieving i think.... i coped by being thankful my tits were so cute for so long. (the surgery honestly would've been easier if my tits werent so "cute") at age 35 that was a long time to carry those feelings, and now i've relived myself of them. (dysphoria and all)

I know these feelings will ease in time... it's a very convoluted mixed up feelings, on the one hand, my nipples were cute enough that I convinced myself to love them as much as I could for all my life, but on the other hand, I was always slightly disturbed by them if I ever looked at them closely, and I had trauma associated with them.

Well, it should be fun to draw lil paws on my chest sometim, but for now... just looking for comfort and solidarity i guess

happy one week post op to me
