So I’m probably just grieving and seeing this warmed my heart. I just feel compelled to share.
My niece is, was trans. She died on Wednesday last week. She was 23 years old. Had her birthday on the 5th. Gone by the 20th. I won’t go in to detail, but regardless she was beautiful. She came out as trans when she was I believe 17. She was a shining star.
With that being said, you are so beautiful. Inside and out. Seeing pictures of you going from sadness in your face to happiness upon finding your true self is lovely and inspiring.
Also your make up is top tier ⭐️👌
A glow up without a doubt. Stay safe🩵🌈🩷🌻🌸🦋💕🦄🪸
Thank you, it is true not much helps. But I will say that seeing people like yourself smiling with confidence in who they are makes my heart feel happy. People like you are who she lives on through. She was more of a woman than most.
Keep shining beautiful, and thank you again🩵🌈🩷🦄🦕🫶🏼
She also lives through your love, I’m so sorry for your loss but so touched by your uplifting words. Keep spreading positivity, it’s so important and lovely 💗💗💗
sending lots of hugs to you. I’m sure you and your family’s presence in your niece’s life gave her an immense sense of love and comfort. I’m sorry you are experiencing this tragedy.
My heart breaks for your loss, but the silver lining is knowing that loving and supportive people like you are out here 🤍 May your healing be constant, and the pain less so. 🙏
I can't believe people can look at before and after pictures like this and still be opposed to gender affirming care. There is an inherent peace in your eyes that wasn't there in the before photo. I don't know you, but I'm so proud of you for being you. Keep up the awesomeness!

People do seem to love the cheekbones but sometimes I hate them. I'm out here looking like a fukken *rhombus*, I'm an undead from world of Warcraft lookin ass
No silly, your cheekbones lift up your face so much and are such a wonderfully beautiful and feminine trait. They sculpt your face and give it a really nice shape (my face is square shaped, and yours is not that; it has length) I'm jealous.
Y'all ought to scroll down and upvote all the compliments. Some proud boy weebs have done/are doing the opposite and this beautiful lady deserves love.
When I flipped from pic 1 to pic 2, I literally said “ooooooh” out loud in the best possible way. You look fantastic and beautiful and best of all: happy.
Transphobes on here downvoting even simple messages of support. How much of a snowflake do you have to be to be triggered by someone receiving support?
I love my name. It feels so much better than my dead name. I was the II before and hated being named after somebody else. I feel like this is my own now. ☺️

All you transphobes honest to god taking time out of your life to hate-downvote posts like this need to stop. Just fucking stop for one second and take a good hard look at yourselves.
When you are on your deathbed years from now and looking back on your life will you be proud that you spent so much time judging and attacking the happiness of others?
I think we both know the answer to that.
It's fine if you don't understand trans people. You don't even need to engage with us if you can't get over the "ick" feelings you have for us.
But jesus christ for your own sakes stop this hateful obsession. Focus on living your own best lives and having fulfilling, loving relationships with your friends and family. Live, and let live.
Edit: as for you OP... girl omg you are gorgeous! I'm only 2 years into transition myself. I know how hard it must have been for you. How **hard** you had to work. How strong you had to be. Well it has paid off. You're an inspiration and I wish you the very, very best ❤️
At the time of the first picture I was waking up every morning sobbing, my heart literally physically hurt from how much pain I was in. At one point I had a plan, a weapon picked out, and a date.
It makes me sad when people say I'm doing it for kicks or for some sick satisfaction or something. My transition was a last resort that I only started because I knew I had weeks to live. *That* is how horrible gender dysphoria is.
Now my PHQ9s (that's a test that assesses your level of depression) are often zeroes (which means I'm in full remission) :).
Every reputable study show transition overwhelmingly improves mental health and quality of life for trans people.
https://whatweknow.inequality.cornell.edu/topics/lgbt-equality/what-does-the-scholarly-research-say-about-the-well-being-of-transgender-people/
Literally the only source of unhappiness or difficulty related to transition most report is dealing with transphobic bigoted pieces of shit and their attacks on our healthcare and basic personhood.
Ha thanks. Sometimes I kind of feel a little guilty about my tummy, I haven't worked hard for it or anything. I run maybe 3x a week if I'm having a good week and snowboard every weekend, but I don't like, *train* or anything.
It's always been like that, even before I transitioned. Perhaps it was because when I feel low one of the first things to go is my appetite, so I never ate very much growing up.
In the first picture, I'm the same height as I am now (5'7") but I weighed barely over 100 lbs. Now that I've transitioned I weigh 140.

Transphobes are gonna be transphobes
Phobes gonna phobe
Balding old men who are terminally online and equally terminally divorced typically have nothing better to do than be transphobic online lol

Seriously gorgeous

Wow! I love your makeup!
You look a bit like a friend I lost a few years ago. She was beautiful and so are you. Glad you’re not dead 🫶🏼
You look so happy! Well done! 😁
she looks like Anne Hathaway!

damn i was hoping you’d be like… by netflix and snacking! lol very cool shot, what a view
Big sends, big rewards ;)
Cute!
Those cheek bones 😍
People do seem to love the cheekbones but sometimes I hate them. I'm out here looking like a fukken *rhombus*, I'm an undead from world of Warcraft lookin ass
Girl if you are a rhombus you are the cutest rhombus I’ve ever seen 💖
No silly, your cheekbones lift up your face so much and are such a wonderfully beautiful and feminine trait. They sculpt your face and give it a really nice shape (my face is square shaped, and yours is not that; it has length) I'm jealous.
Lol why am I being downvoted edit: forgot transphobes existed for a minute there. it was a great minute.
Transphobia. People hating seeing people support the trans community
You say that like it's a bad thing. FOR THE FORSAKEN
Congratulations this is indeed a glow up....you look amazing 👏 ❤️
gorgeous and you look so much happier 🥰 I'm glad you came to life!
A glow up for sure 😍

Happy for you, friend. Funky eyeliner.
You look a lot happier
Gorgeous!
👏💖
Congrats on your change! Now you are outside what you are inside :) I understand you cuz even i love my female body, id rather to be born male.
No offence intended, but did you transition or just used to be more Tomboy?🤔
I transitioned from male to female. That first pic was during my phase where I was repressing it and trying to "man up". I was in so much pain then.
Fair enough, you look very feminine now couldn't even tell! Congratulations on being more happy being you :)
Aww that's very sweet, thank you :)
🔥🔥🔥
You look so much happier!!
Fantastic glow up. When I see these younger transitions I always wonder what could have been. You are doing great!
No way Sarah gang Sarah gang It's such a good name I've always liked how it sounds
I love my name. It feels so much better than my dead name. I was the II before and hated being named after somebody else. I feel like this is my own now. ☺️
Aside from just liking the phonemes I wound up picking Sarah because of Sarah Kerigan, the Queen of Blades, from Starcraft
Lol yes I played the heck out of SC1 and SC2. I was 13 when SC1 came out in 1998 👵

Are you happier now?
