Idk maybe you could find a more fucked up picture with fewer pixels for us to study =P Seriously, Sky, this isn't a meaningful image. This image allows you to fill in the blanks with whatever terrible emotions you're feeling at the moment you look at it. It doesn't serve you, and you should treat yourself better than this. You're basically bullying yourself. You should get someone who cares about you to take and select some pictures to share. They have a more objective view of your body and appearance.
Anyone can take a bad picture. I can take a shitty, low res picture that makes me look awful. I often have to take and shuffle through several shots to get the good one. And I'm fucking hot =P
I just feel like it's impossible for hrt or transting to do anything for me. And that's it all just a fanasty and I'll never look at myself and be happy. Body postivey is the same as if I never took hrt for me. Since I legit have no seen a single major change and I look awful.
How has HRT affected how you feel on the inside, appearances ignored?
