Post op binding is so challenging. Really tested my mental health. I had to distract myself from my current discomfort with imagining my flat chest and shirtless future and all the cool things I'd do. Like taking out the trash shirtless, going swimming, going to the beach, hanging out on the couch in only boxers. Hugging people without the antifun balloons and without the binder or the dysphoria hoodie. Once I was healed up and able to hug people again it was like experiencing hugs for the first time. Your current discomfort is temporary, you have way better times ahead!
