Today sucked. A lot. Things that I shrugged off pre-HRT can really upset me know. But even so...I wouldn't change a thing. I'd never stop taking E. Because I like having emotions, the good, bad and ugly. I don't enjoy being an emotionless zombie, like I was pre-HRT.

I can cry. I can let it out. HRT is the greatest gift life has bestowed upon me and I am forever grateful.

This is so extremely relatable and nice to read. It's exactly the way I feel too. I do get way more upset with things sometimes, but i actually feel them emotions and i feel like they've been processed when they're done. I cried for 90 straight minutes the other day because I tried to go out to a trans meetup and I got incredibly socially anxious and had a panic attack and I had to leave. It's because I cared more, and it's because i'm actually capable of feeling emotions now. It's so much better than it was before, even in its saddest and most painful moments.

It was really nice to read you put it into words from your perspective. Sorry you had that dogshit day. Better days will come.
