I came out as trans to my therapist in November 2019. She helped me tell my mom who was unsure at first but then when I said "this is who I am. This is who I always was." She got it and has been nothing but supportive and shes the one who gives me my weekly HRT shots and she took care of me after my surgeries. Everyone else I told was like "no duh, we always knew you wanted to be a boy." My entire family is all very supportive and uses my correct name and pronouns. I don't make a big deal out of it though. I know they accept me. I have one shirt that says protect trans kids and I have an Adidas pride hat. I don't wear that kind of stuff outside the house though. Sometimes I wear the hat. Most LGBTQ people I know just want to blend in with everyone else so they don't typically wear that stuff unless its at pride events. Being harrassed is a very real fear of mine even though I pass.
