I felt like being late on purpose to make sure I didn't accidentally start another annoying trend 
That being said, this has been quite the year for me. I started this year out in a rather dark place and damn near quitting everything, so I am actually quite happy that I am alive today and things got better. I started my hormones in April and the results have made a world of difference for me, especially since they are correcting the horrible hormone inbalance that we are still not sure what caused it, so I am eager to look more into that. I also finally legally changed my name to Crystal in life and also had my gender marker corrected to Female on all legal documents, including my ID, social, and birth certificate. My girlfriend and I also moved into our first apartment together and have been living quite happily together for about a month now.
As for coming out, it's rather obvious from the years that my gender and sexuality have always been a bit of a mess for me due to my history and relationships. So I either kept myself in the closet or used vague terms to describe myself because I was never really happy with anything I could say about myself. To be honest, I've started to realize that it's not really important to focus on those things and just do what happiest. I happy when I am with women (trans, cis, etc.,) I am happy with female and gender-neutral pronounces, I am FAR happier on my hormone and watching my body develop, I am happier just expressing myself as just me. Some people say this is trans, some say it's non-binary, I just say I am happy either way.
