Hii

As per my last transfem post, I'll be meeting up with some people tomorrow!!

Suuuppper anxious :/
It will be the first time, outside of explictely trans groups, presenting myself as women!
So tomorrow is a big moment for me, hence the spiralling anxiety from before. But afterwards, if all goes well enough, I will be proud of myself!

Take a moment before you go to take a few deep breaths and remind yourself that you got this.

hi it's me, John T. Chat

i'm gonna be totally honest, it will be a bit scary - in the beginning, that is. the nice part is that after a little while you get more and more comfortable presenting fem and just being yourself, and the anxiety will just kinda fade away. and then you will feel very relieved and also very proud of yourself for having gone out there :)

let us know how it goes! you got this, girlie :3
