Seeing myself in the mirror! For most of my life I struggled with body image issues, I absolutely hated how I looked. It took me nearly 20 years to figure out it was dysphoria. Nearly two years later I get to look in the mirror everyday and see a body and face I like, that feels more like me.
I am early into my transition and that is something I'm looking forward to. Since first puberty I could not stand to look at myself in the mirror, even though I was conventionally attractive by society's standards. It's improved now with each newly acquired trait.
Very happy for you. Today's the first day of the rest of our lives. Now we can finally start living. Cheers!
