    Got some old school dysphoria back last night. Lets just say I used to think I must be an alien. Cried like shit. I was around 21 then. It’s still affirming to know I’ve always been like this, but sometimes it bashes into my brain in unexpected ways. Today feel amazing though, walked 10ks and realised my boobs have got a nice boob shape. 143 days hrt, I kinda hope they don’t grow too big but most of my family aren’t small breasted women. Still, euphoria quickly replaces dysphoria.

          If you don’t mind my suggestion, I don’t know if you’re at the stage where you need support but some sports bras may be a comfy and worthy investment. I got frustrated with bras at work and the dreaded bra strap slippage which occurs when one’s active, as you are with all your walking and activities. The women I work with suggested I try sports bras and it was a game changer.

            Yeah I’ve pretty much only been wearing sports bra/bralettes. I CBF dealing with wires and uncomfortable-ness.

            Thanks so much, yeah I have a bunch, two adidas ones which are padded I kinda live in. I have a bunch of other ones which I bought early on for modesty and wore because I just loved playing with the straps. Eventually I’ll get some fancy ones, but they’re going to keep growing for 2-5 years
