This was so comforting. I've been watching tons of these doubt and fear videos lately cause I'm just scared to start HRT. I'm very know that I'm trans and that I want the changes you go through when you're on T but I'm still terrified that I'd regret it and not be able to go back. I don't even think it's likely to happen but I'm so scared of it anyways. I'm constantly going through all kind of "what if" scenarios in my head and keep thinking of the worst. But you really reassured me, it was definitely needed for me to hear the positive things and what you're hoping for and the way you talked about your worries and fears made me feel understood. But also that you said that sometimes you just need to go for it was helping. Thank you so much!
I relate so fucking much... I wish more transmasc people would talk about that fear of transitioning. I also make a relatively attractive girl and I have a lot of fear around “ruining” that. And I know I’m trans and I get horrible dysphoria but I don’t make impulsive decisions so this is something I’ve been thinking about for years but never acted on past cutting my hair and changing pronouns. I’m glad to see another trans person in the same boat as me :)
This totally speaks to me, Elliot. Thanks for making this and good luck to you. I've been on T just over a month now and it's feeling really good. Take care
I'm going to talk about T today and this video helped me a lot because our hopes are similar and we share the first one exactly. I know this was two years ago, but I hope that you're able to look back on this and feel happier than you were here! Cheers
This speaks to my soul! Thank you for sharing these thoughts. 1000% relatable, especially your concurrent doubts and hopes about your voice. I felt all those things, and still feel them sometimes as I go through this journey.
Hi Elliot! I'm from Brazil and I was looking for a video like this. You exactly described my fears, I really want to take testosterone but there are these fears. I hope everything will be okay. Thanks for sharing…
7:20 Speaking of the uncertainty of not knowing what you what look like, you looked kind of sort of like me when you were pre-T. And your voice sounded somewhat kind of similar to mine too (but it's really hard to tell because I've done A LOT of voice training). So maybe I might end up looking and sound some what kind of similar to how you look and sound now. But it's still uncertain.

Honestly, I knew the minute the needle went in that it was right for me! I just needed to go for it and now I couldnt be happier
Elliot Walsh Right on! Same here :)
This is scarily similar to how I feel. Thank you for this, Elliot
