feb: appointment with lorimer... trans-ness begins with start of hormones - but antipsychotics blocking much of the progress. yet still feel feminine enough to wear girls clothes alot of the time, even if they werent overtly feminine.

seeing Magnus almost every friday & saturday, we chat & smoke weed i often get lost in the conversations and forget what we were talking about or lose track or interest in what he is saying, but it is a definately enjoyable time spent with him... we go swimming and to 1001cafe, also to some psytrance parties where he gets very drunk... and I often eat acid

playing Aion almost everyday. talk about that: Jize (Cleric) amazonian transsexual avatar! <Divine Order> guild...
looking forward to my weekly payday where I buy £20 of weed & get my food shopping + maekup etc..

living off of bond money since december

monthly i get paid £270 DLA so i would buy more hormones with that aswell as plants from the internet and clothes shopping and a fair amount of cannabis.

get randomly scouted at Shoreditch near the bridges at the bottom of kingsland. I guess the hormones had had some small effect enough to make me look very pretty and model-stuff... also someone else took photographs of me...

march: getting seriously ill from the antipsychotics (clopixol injection), feel there is no end to it all - at least the estrogen is helping somewhat with the depression etc: anti-androgens also helping too.

flat is very dirty and messy and has many many fruit flies living there especially in the kitchen/living roomr00m. lots of  rubbish everywhere. starting to smell stale and dodgy...

hanging out with Titus often during the week; at least 4 days a week, we listen to music and chat and smoke weed while he drinks too much and sometimes smokes crack.
Aion becomes my major obsession. although i stop playing in May...

april: Dr. Morikinyo surprises me and decides to take me off anti-psychotics and to test my theory out that I will be okay without them... suddenly I am very elated and pleased, but know it will be a long wait until they wear off completely and the oestrogen starts to work for me, it mis-understand how half-lifes work and think it will be 30 days, actually it turns out to be 5 months'
first 8 weeks after stopping antipsychs are the hardest, after that i notice i am enjoying myself more and it gets gradually easier and easier, but still not pleasant and estrogenic until at least mid jun-august, by which time in aug i have ran out of oestrogen!! :/
Often taking HWBR sometimes twice a week with Titus and drinking various teas, I am drinking Iboga everyday and taking lots of feminising supplements & mucuna / noni
eventually i run out of hwbr which is probably for the best since taking those seeds with meds is having strong negative effects (can talk about the restlessness and discomfort you experienced when taking the seeds)

may: i start to overdose myself on estrogen because i cant feel the effects enough because of clopixol. one day i took 12 2mg pills, I notice it is nothing like taking oestrogen without psychs but i do begin to feel some nice feelings and it becomes a litle bit of a habit; taking too much
the fruitflies start to become my friends - although not as much my friends as they become in the future when i am getting a little crazy and have taken many psychedelics.
