No gatekeepers with valid opinions at least.

I made this meme to challenge my own doubt in 2022, and I’m honestly proud of it. However, I wanted to wait till I was more certain before coming out, so I tried to affirm myself in subtle ways. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how much dysphoria negatively affects me, so my mental health plummeted to the worst it’s ever been.

Don’t be like me and wait for impossible certainty. You won’t magically have a moment where all doubts disappear. Logic can’t help you, you need to listen to what feels most comfortable. I only knew I made the right choice after I took that leap.

    Sometimes you know but you don’t feel it. I hated that feeling. Took months for me to get past, best of luck to any current eggs.

    There are ways to use “logic” that are helpful in my opinion. Back in the day, I made two lists. One with all the reasons that I felt like a trans woman and one with all the reasons I felt cis. The first list was much, much longer.
