I began detransition 14 months ago At the time I was so afraid of never passing as my sex again that I overcompensated with make up, a wig, feminine clothes etc But thats not me. 14 months on, I present how I'm comfortable - "masculine" I still get "sir'd" and that's fine 1/x

In the early months of detransition, I needed to self reflect. This is ancedotal, you may be different, and that's fine But counseling and online advice did not help me half as much as taking time to talk to myself I've learned a lot from myself and I'm happier for it 4/x

I've seen first hand what some mental health professionals will say in order to avoid the transphobe label I've seen first hand the hate and vitriole online that's directed towards anyone discussing detransition But if you trust yourself, really, you will get through this 5/x

If you care to, take the advice of this one, drunk detransitioner, and adopt the "fuck it" mentality People still see you as X? Fuck it Strangers still call you Y? Fuck it If you can, eventually, accept yourself (as fuckin cliché as it sounds) you will get there. 6/6

Best of luck to you. This cannot be easy. You sound like you've come out with a sense of peace regarding it all and I think you have a very valuable voice. Thanks for sharing your story (I listened on Boyce's podcast)
