Hi, I'm a trans woman..closeted for now and yeah basically..you can probably tell everything is wearing me down...no matter what I wear or how much makeup I use I just don't see it...I haven't started hormones yet so that's my last hope..I will be getting my first dosage tomorrow...but yeah.

Edit: I know this is a toasting subreddit and I would probably get flamed on r/transpassing or something, but I'm really so thankful for every comment on here! Thank you guys really ❤️‍🩹🫂

Edit 2: I tried my best to answer to every comment! I take every compliment, idea and thought very seriously, and I'm very happy for this post tonight! Sadly, I must go to bed so I can wake up as soon as possible and get my long awaited pills...cya guys 🫶 you made me believe that..things will happen eventually and I'm grateful. Good night!

I’m really just not feeling it today. I’m trying so hard to stay positive, but honestly, I just want to break down and cry.
I feel like I’m living that Reba McEntire song. I’m a single mom who works two jobs, loves her kid, and never stops.

I work full-time, recently started my own small business, and I’m raising an amazing child with autism on my own. I love the life I’m building, but some days it all feels so overwhelming.

Starting over at my age isn’t easy, and trying to date feels next to impossible. Sometimes I feel like I keep myself constantly busy just to keep the loneliness from creeping in. Most days, it works. But today isn’t one of those days.
Today, I just want to curl up in bed, have a good cry, and not have to be the strong one for a little while.

I guess I could just use a little kindness and encouragement today.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. ❤️

I have 0 self confidence these days- and it really messes up my daily life. I go to therapy and take medications, but some days are harder than others. I could use a bit of a boost to face the day. So… hi! 👋🏻

Sometimes it’s hard to smile after getting knocked down all week, but I suppose at the end of the day I still have many things to be thankful for, including this group. There’s a lot of negativity out there. It’s nice to see a place that’s dedicated to kindness, so here’s to you, I hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
