Looking for engagement from my fellow Trans people.

Hello, you beautiful stranger. I recently decided to try to resurrect my old FB account after like 5 years to work on some real local community. I purged 3/4 of my friends list (didn’t grow up in a trans-friendly environment), and opened up my pictures to start removing things, and… I can’t.

I can’t look at them without it feeling painful. But I also can’t imagine myself deleting pictures of such big things - my engagement, years of wonderful dates with my now-wife, pictures with my old cat from before he passed - damn near every picture feels like sandpaper on my soul to see, but even worse to delete.

Any advice on what the heck to do from anyone who has been there?

Thanks 🩵🏳️‍⚧️

    Yeah I concur with the other commenter. Could also download them and delete the ones off Facebook. So you have a copy but it’s not attached to your profile.
