    oh i’m stealing ‘in a couple years ago’ that’s great.

    I think one nice thing about transitioning later is it seems easier for us to not give a fuck. I sort of force-masced myself 30 years ago and now i’m delighting in undoing all of that.

    The affirmations really work, especially if you say them out loud. A lot of advertising and self hypnosis works because the brain puts fewer filters between direct audio and your mind. If you distract the executive network and the salience network is relaxed your brain just kind of accepts things it hears at a low level.

    Good luck darling I believe in you <3

      I have already started the affirmations. Feels a little weird, but I think it will work. Thank you so much. <3
