You should get it in your head that your breasts are growing, like every single time you look down at them or touch them or see them in the mirror, get excited about it and be like my breasts are growing!! With a smile on your face, positive reinforcement .

And as for massage, I personally don't think it has to be the boring 300 circles route, you can do that when you have time, but when you don't have time just rub them over your clothes, grab them at red lights when you're driving, cooking, whenever, just give them lots of loving attention, always have a smile when thinking about your breasts growing & envision yourself with them the size you want. If I'm not rubbing mine, I grab them for a quick tweak/full boobie pinch. I like mine rough-handled personally Lol. At home I don't wear a bra for better bloodflow and easier access same with if I can get away with it in public, so that when I'm driving I can give them quick rubs.

One of my classes I am taking currently, we had a trans man in to speak, and he talked about his transitioning period, and now he was going the opposite direction of you, but the change of hormones made him VERY emotional, I'd assume it'd be the same for you so that is probably the reason for your depressive feelings, along with you body simply not looking how you want it to yet. It's important to keep up the positivity and believe that you will get there though. I'm confused by your posts if you're already on hormones or have not started them yet? But eat lots of !Healthy! fats, and use your mind to be constantly telling your body where you want the fat to go. It'll listen.

I'm on my HRT now. I started back in April of '14, lol.

I do try to remind myself that my breasts are growing still yet. But i can't help feeling really discouraged and depressed whenever I'm about to get into the shower, I take my shirts and my bra off and I see my chest is still... flat looking. It still looks like a man's chest and I hate that. It's just a sad sorry reminder of what I'm trying to get far away from.

The other thing about it is massage alone isn't doing much, not for me anyway. So I won't feel like doing them until I've saved up enough to buy me jars of Pueraira Mirifica, Fenugreek, and Bovine Ovary, and then resume doing the massages.

Speaking of naturally-born females, doesn't it take them longer than 2-3 years for their breasts to develop? It doesn't take (I don't think) 2-3 years for a teenager or a pre-teen of either gender to go through puberty so I don't think breast growth takes that long.

Not intending to discourage you more, but breast growth for genetic women can go on from around the age of 10 to 18 or later. Some women are as old as 21 or so before reaching their final size. On the upside, you may have a decade of interesting surprises ahead of you. "Life is like a box of chocolates...".

Oh okay, that's good to know. Thanks.
