I feel the need to be super presentable at my appointments. My T is very fashionable and always very pretty in heals and jewelry. I feel out of place if I don't look good, which makes me self conscious.
When I first started T I was always just in sweats or something oversized...anything to hide myself and not draw any attention.

She called me beautiful since the day she met me and still does today and it's healing. (My personal poor self esteem comes from my mom and she is my moms age) And she had seen me at my absolute worst.
Even though she says all of this and compliments something on me I still feel shy about my appearance.

It almost feels like the compliments give me a subconscious obligation to look even better the next session and it starts getting stressful...
