It's good to hear that you are figuring everything out. I am honestly not that informed on the process of transitioning, although I can imagine it's equally difficult and rewarding.

Personally I figured out the root of my depression a few years ago, and it's definitely the most important step toward everything getting better. I wish nothing but the best of luck to you going forward.

I've had a few very close friends that are trans and a distant cousin as well and I can only say I'm happy for you for being able to come out feeling strongly and confidently about it. These friends of mine are all happier in the process of transitioning and while they might be close friends, I admit that I don't know much about the process or indeed what it's like to have gender dysphoria at all.

It's really encouraging to see people able to overcome depression and it gives me some hope in my own case so thanks for this blog and I hope things continue on this upward trajectory for you, Kira.

Was a great pleasure reading it, and you showed immense bravery in doing so. Wish you all the best, henceforth. Glad you got out of that toxic relationship, and doing your healing process, while transforming both mentally and metaphorically into a beautiful butterfly, spreading your wings of happiness and love.
