A little over a year ago I made a comic about my general frame of mind immediately before going into top surgery, called This Will Be Worth It. And then, roughly a year later, I made this follow-up comic called One Year Later, featuring my weird analogy selves and their liminal space.I had it on Patreon for awhile, but now here it is now for tumblr, a day after National Coming Out day. Top surgery was the absolute best thing for me, but it was a lot of work and has taken so long to unpack, and a year and a half later I’m still decompressing. This comic is a complicated one. It’s got pros and cons, and weird analogies, but mostly it’s a shout-out to the people who helped me get through what was easily the scariest, most uncertain time of my life. I’m so very, very grateful for them and the help and support they lent me in a time where I absolutely could not have done what I did without them.Top surgery doesn’t fix everything, and it isn’t for everyone. I had the same life problems and issues coming out of surgery that I had going in. However, it also helped me get a footing in a way I never had been able to, and allows me to get through my days and experience life in a way I never could before. (I can go outside now? I can travel? I spend time with friends!) I’m glad for it, and though things are still complicated, I have never not even once looked back. Anyway, here’s One Year Later in its entirety.
