This video is a year old now, but it’s still an important message; topic starts at a little after 2 minutes in the video.

#Repost @alionsfear with @repostapp ・・・ Today marks my 7th year anniversary since the day I first started Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). I'm choosing to share a few images from my past that resonate with me today. This image is from one summer right before I came out as transgender and started my transition. I chose to share this image because there is no "telling" if someone may be trans or not. There are not always signs, or clues. Some people keep their truest feelings deep deep down so no one can see. I wouldn't go saying this is what I did- I've been stealing my brothers clothes since I was in 6th grade- BUT I did go through a big phase of being extremely feminine. I tried so hard to be what people around me wanted me to be. People called me pretty and always said I looked good when I dressed this way. But I hated it- I hated me. I figured if I dressed up and people liked me, I would start to like me too. Well if that ain't the biggest crock of you know what! But that took me years of depression, pain, anger and most of all hate for myself and my body- before I learned that happiness comes from within. Even after i decided to medically transition and take HRT- I had to relearn again, that happiness comes from within. Yea it's great presenting as the gender I am, male. And this beard I got is awesome! Lol But the love I have for myself has been a struggle my whole life. A battle I will continue to fight because I refuse to lose. #nevergiveuponyourself #transgender #ftm #femaletomale #myidentity #trans #thistranslife #prehormones #transition #7yrsont #testosterone #femmedays #alionsfears #aydiandowling #alionsfear
