I'm sitting at the airport people watching and feeling the same discomfort with my body and appearance that I've always felt, and I wonder how many women don't feel like that and what it's like.

Its exhausting and honestly makes me want to not be alive a lot of the time.

Edit: All my t-girl homies spotting the dysphoria right away 😅, I didn't really want this to be about my dysphoria I guess, but well spotted.

I'm pre-HRT still, waiting until next month to start the readiness assessment when my doctor gets back from vacation, but I've stopped shaving my arms for a bit since the cat scratched me pretty good when we were playing not long ago, and I want to wait for those wounds to heal before starting again.

Seeing my hair grow back on my arms reminds me how much I hate body hair. I'm going to start waxing soon, and I'm really hoping that making a habit of that will help keep it away for longer.

Always hated looking at myself in the mirror, or in photos and videos either.
