The last gate to coming out at work has now opened, and that means I stop using the masc voice and deadname starting this week! I am so looking forward to that!
In other news, I have spent a lot of time lately helping people having panic attacks (and needed that help, myself, once). Mental health is a struggle that doesn’t just disappear. Check on those you care about, because they may be suffering in silence.
Realized I can’t stay up till 1am anymore
Honestly one of the weirdest feelings. Ive found myself wondering why I’m still awake around 10:30 PM lately
Got my legal name/gender marker change approved. Now I need to wait for papers before requesting changes to more papers but at least I’m making progress.
Started sending job applications. It’s kind of hard to figure out what I’m good at, especially since it’s almost impossible to find local golang programming jobs, and the tech job market is kinda weird right now. And then theres the whole “being visibly trans at a new workplace”-set of worries! Would also be nice if they could reply to my applications.
Terrible.
Busy! I’m currently in the middle of a cell biology test thingy that I need to complete to qualify for exams. My legal name and gender has finally changed and as a result lots of things are no longer valid and will need to be renewed with my new details. My mom will be visiting next week also, and I’ll likely be coming out to her then. Too many things :P
