I had biochemical dysphoria, but not so much physical or societal dysphoria. So I thought I was just really depressed and angry, but there were enough other signs that I decided to take a closer look. I decided to go ahead and take estrogen and I got my confirmation after a couple of weeks of that when I just stopped being depressed and angry.

I could easily have spent the rest of my life not connecting the dots, if it weren’t for the trans community on Lemmy. I would often come across the egg irl memes and eventually it just clicked.
