Hello this is a positive Post, I live in Greece and before I went there with my partner I was unsure on starting hrt or even passing in general having dysphoria on my 5oclock shadow and my hair growth and thus made me very sad and unproductive. So going there we went to the trans library which is a place where queer people hang and read book and honestly this opened my eyes knowing that I am not alone but also there can have the insecure parts too and not care because they were happy of themselves. Despite going there only 2 times, I met 3 different people and was taught that hormone replacement therapy is my way of actually feeling myself, my dysforia parts won’t stop from making me pass and most importantly tat we need such community back home, especially with tough times coming and trans safety being at risk. My plan now except that I started hrt is to make the community that made me feel safe and not alone in my city and to help people with my issues not to be alone. I don’t know if I will make it but I am sure that I will try and I will start this week.

Remember you are not alone and it’s good to make such community everywhere not just online but in one place where people can call it home.

    I gotta ask: Did you get splashed with water from the sea by a very very evil yet kind Finn who likes riding bicycles when you were in Helsinki? Or is it a tradition for transgender Greeks to randomly find the trans library on their first day in Helsinki and you somehow are not the same person?
