so I have finally started and told most of my friends that I am going to transition and I have been so lucky to have the help of my friends get ready for life as a woman but I have at times fears that I am not doing the right thing and it is difficult to talk to my friends about it

@politePond510 congratulations on starting this big journey! It's a long way to go and it can be tough to deal with everything, but it's great that you have good friends you can share your journey with. It's different for everyone, but some people find that it becomes easier along the way, as transition allows you to feel more and more confident with yourself. The more you feel like yourself, the easier it is to put all the pieces together and make it work. It's really one of those "trust the process" things"!

And yes, it might not always be easy to find the right words to express what you're feelings. The good thing is your friends know that too, so they'll definitely be empathetic if you sometimes struggle to make yourself be understood. As long as they leave room for empathy and accept that things can be complicated for you to go through it and even more complicated to explain, you'll be good.

You can definitely be proud of yourself! And if you ever need to talk about things, we're here too.

Amazing job on taking those first steps!! It can be overwhelming for sure, and I wish you the best with your transition. It's not easy, and it might not always be filled with good times, but in the end, you're you, and expressing yourself is important and takes SOOOOO much courage. You deserve to be heard and seen! If you ever would like to chat, other listeners and I are here for you! It can be stressful when navigating all of this, it's great you have the support of your friends. I hope you continue to get the support you deserve to receive and have a safe and smooth transition :)

Congratulations for taking the first step of your mtf transition 🎊🎈🍾

We’re proud of you for having the courage to tell your friends

I get that your having doubts about it and it’s normal to have them

But if you believe in your heart that you are a women then your a woman and don’t I repeat Don’t let other people tell you how to feel and live your life because they aren’t the ones living it.
