In the process of questioning myself, I discovered that it doesn’t seem very natural to refer to myself as she/her at first. How did you yourself experiment it? Did it take some time getting used to? Or was it an instant relief?

      I was very afraid of telling people my chosen name until I came out to two female friends of mine and the always introduce me as Alice and they love me very much and their friends as well.

      Feeling loved as Alice was for me the “click” for internalising that “I really am Alice”

      I am still scared to introduce myself as Alice because I don’t pass very well and I don’t want people asking me questions, but at least I’m now 100% that I’m Alice, a girl, and that I want people to refer to me using the feminine forms of my language :)
