Sometimes there isn't really a "good" time to come out. It's a hard choice of whether to do it or wait, I wish you all the best whatever you end up doing.

What a nightmare [emoji25] . I'm so tired of all of this. I hate it when people comment on my appearance - even the well-intentioned ones. I'm so self-conscious. Why can't people leave me alone? Everyone commented on my hair (which is shorter). MIL said it made my face look fuller, which was surely meant as a compliment but I hate everything about myself so much, and the last thing I want is for my face to look rounder (i.e. more feminine). My mom said I looked "good" and relaxed, and I just want to scream at her. I'm so tired of this. [emoji25]

It sounds like you're experiencing a lot of dysphoria?
That's so hard to deal with. I'm sorry you're having to go through this right now
Is there anything you can do to help make yourself feel a little better? It doesn't have to be a lot, just a little something can help. Like for me, playing online video games as a male can really help. Or going out with a basketball and shooting some hoops (as that's kinda a guy thing here, excuse the stereotyping but it does help affirm myself).
