Was a long time repper/questioner. Now finally on E, at first i fucking loved it.
Then suddenly start fearing im doing the wrong thing over and over, fear im growing breasts i might hate.
But its not consistent at all, other times i cry out of happiness because my body looks more female now.
Also lose any interest in things i used to enjoy, almost everything feels like a chore.
Feel like im even losing my desire to be female/feminine.
Sex drive nuked from HRT so also cant distract myself with that.
Lose all interest in everything i used to like, dont even know anymore if i have any trans desires at all, dont even have the confidence that im a pervert with weird fetishes anymore since sex drive got nuked.
Every day is a back and forth, one one hand: "omfg what am i doing im prob just cis i should stop" or "oh god what if i hate having tits" as well as "everything sucks i should get the courage to kms, nothing will ever be better no matter what i do".
And on the other hand: The only good-ish times i have is when im more certain im trans. Can be minor like liking how my face looks more fem in the mirror now. Or major like being happier than i ever was before with how i look and crying cuz im so happy my body looks more female now.
Neither of those moods ever lasts. The only constant is a return to misery, boredom, confusion and being not sure what i want or am while being extremely anxious that i am doing sth wrong or already did sth horribly wrong. Plus a constant dread that i wasted my entire youth.
It feels like everything i ever thought i was, might be or wanted to be (student, probably a tranny, repper, a girl, weird pervert, movie liker, computer person) is getting obliterated and im just left with nothing.
I feel entirely afloat and disconnected from reality.
Please i just want it to stop, why couldnt i have just been normal, normal tranny or normal cissy i dont fucking care anymore. But not whatever this shit is, this just feels like purgatory.

Idk anymore.
Its a complicated question idk...
On one hand:
- For the first time ever i now sometimes like what i look like
- Occasionally i get ecstatic about how i look more female/feminine now
- A lot of the effects are almost entirely positive to me (less body hair, softer skin, more soft/feminine/female looking face, female fat distribution, less erections/smaller dick n balls (i dont really like them i think))
- I dont wanna risk John50-ing later anyways
- I dont really like anything that T does
(At least usually, if im in a mood like i am rn i just feel hopeless no matter what so the above doesnt apply then. But if im in a better mood then the above applies)
On the other hand:
- I am so fucking scared i wont like having breasts. I dont wanna have to get top surgery.
- Maybe i just gotta do it to gain certainty. Like if i stop and feel even worse it might give me the confidence to keep going?
But idk why im like that. Is it just im anxious about a "what if"? Ie i like them/could like them and im just scared about what if i hypothetically wont at some point? Do i just have to get used to them? Is this the actual onset of dysphoria about them? Could i just "body neutrality"-maxx my way into not caring that much about them and accepting it as a side-effect? Am i just this anxious about it because its the most permanent & visible effect, but might be fine actually?
Thats not helped by the fact sometimes i also like them. Id be lying if i said i hadnt happy cried before because i really really liked that i got a bit of breasts now... It just never lasts very long and then other times i notice them and get scared/anxious in the above non-descript way :C
Idk this is not really a good answer but this is what my brain gets like all the time thinking abt this stuff :C.

Forgot to add:
- Maybe i could have liked what i look like already without E?
Like i lost weight at the same time as starting mayb that would have been enough? Ik i avoided mirrors and pictures like the plague pre-E and now i take them of myself,,,, almost daily, when i feel good about how i look.
But mayb i just didnt try hard enough?
Also:
- I dont *have to* transition?
Like im not someone for who its like "transition or die" its not even "transition or misery" i think. Sometimes i wish it was so this shit would be easier, but i dont think it is.
I just suspect being a (trans) woman would be better. I might like myself a little more sometimes and be a bit happier somtimes, but i cant really imagine a situation where (personally) it would be worse for me than being male. And sometimes i think it might be better.
At least i used to except now i have the "breast scare" (see >>43271560) that i didnt before :C. Iirc before i started i wasnt extremely looking forward to them, the other physical effects are all more interesting to me + hoping it might lift some of my brainfog/make me hate myself less/like myself more. But i wasnt expecting to dislike them.

Please block any trans space on the Internet and get your OCD checked. Imo you should also remain on estrogen, but that's for you to decide

Why do you think i should block trans spaces on the internet?
Also: Idk if i have OCD, but if i do this gender stuff is the only thing i ever had it about (which ofc makes me scared im faketrans).
Tho the obsessive/frequent thinking about it is a more recent thing again. It was also there while i was repping but not as bad as it is rn/since about 3-4 months or so.
> Imo you should also remain on estrogen, but that's for you to decide
yeah ik its ultimately my decision and i hate that fact lol. I wish there was some easy criterion i could use that gives me a guarantee on making the right decision about being trans/taking E/transitioning but there just isnt.
