Off for my first laser session! It didn’t hurt at all when I had my patch test, but now I’m really nervous it’ll hurt more when it’s on actual facial hair.
I’ve definitely been through worse; I’ve had invasive eye surgery done twice, after all. Still doesn’t help the nerves, though.
Day 365. Holy cow, a year. I can’t believe the changes I’ve had in every part of my life.
Physically, I’ve finally begun to feel comfortable in my own skin. I can actually walk confidently and not be terrified of seeing mirrors.
Emotionally, I am actually happy… I’m happy with myself and my life. I’m in love with the greatest partner I could ever imagine (@finnyisahuman, you are the love of my life. You make me a better person and have helped me through so much in this past year).
I am finally at peace with myself. My life was rocked this past year. My family stopped supporting me. I got accepted to grad school. My finances are a wreck because of constant hits and expenses, but I’m still surviving.
A year. A lot can happen in a year….. and I can’t wait to see what this next year brings.
