MODERATORS
The first big bolt of euphoria I had was when I was still questioning and a prof in an online class said something like "ah, TerminalEncounter yes, she has a really good question everyone" and I rode that high for like 3 days lol
Hearing my mom use my chosen name the first time was nice ๐
More recently euphoria is smaller but it's more everyday which is nice, waking up and being a woman is a nice feeling. The other day I looked in the mirror and was like when the fuck did I get so curvy how did I not notice.
I didn't know that it was euphoria but doing drag way before cracking my egg and getting called she, girl, etc for the first time looking back was pretty euphoric.
I had that when I was earlier in the questioning phase!
I was walking into a place behind another woman, and the lady at the door greeted us and then noticed who i was(she knows me) and said "I almost said 'come in ladies' " and it kind of hit me, less in a funny way, kind of like, "huh, that wouldn't have totally felt wrong"
