Sometimes we don’t feel happy; life just keeps bringing us down and we can’t seem to get up. We find it hard to keep moving forward and reach our goals. We find it difficult to be who we want to be, scared of embracing our true selves.

However, Jasmine Vine managed to get out of this slope and find her true self. After having a bad upbringing and being bullied by her schoolmates, she realized she wasn’t who she wanted to be and started transitioning from male to female. Soon Jasmine started seeing her true self in the mirror. Jasmine is now glowing, full of life, and is happy to help and inspire others on their journey of discovering themselves.

    “My name is Jasmine Vine: a name which I picked for myself when I was becoming the wonderful transgender woman I am today.

    The first time I remember feeling like taking my own life, I was 7 years old. My home life was filled with violence, my parents often chose drugs over food, and I was already a social outcast, being called the f-word in kindergarten. None of my family members had jobs. They taught me how to get the most out of government systems. They even thought me how to steal.”

    Jasmine was born a male, but never felt like she was meant to be in a male body

    “When I turned 14, which I never thought I would, I started documenting my transition on YouTube, and this was quite popular. I often received feedback saying I have helped people find their courage, come out, and feel confident in themselves. Throughout my darkest times, this kept me alive.

    I’ve always had a deep desire to help people, and knowing I could do that got me through times I didn’t think I would get through. In saying this, somewhere down the line, I lost sight of my true purpose/calling.”

    Not to mention other difficulties she faced in life: constant bullying, family, and addiction problems

    One day, Jasmine decided to change her life and finally become who she was always meant to be

    “It’s not possible to shorten my story enough to fit this small space, so I’ll zoom over a couple of things: I was addicted to marijuana. I was diagnosed with depression, bipolar, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and god knows what else. I hit my lowest low, spending some time in a psychiatric facility medicated out of my mind. I lost both of my parents.”

    “Basically, my brain became my worst enemy. My mind was a warzone, and I was enemy number one. Many years of psychology and change work later, reading, psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, working on myself, and most recently investing in coaching and change work, and now, I have reconnected with my values and my purpose! I have leveled up so quickly, my head is spinning, and I am ready to make up for lost time!”

    “I have decided to pursue my entrepreneurial and spiritual dreams, and I’m dedicated to changing as many lives as I can along my journey. I’m ready to put on my cape, pick up my crown, and take over the world! I never thought I could become the person I have created today, but I did, and I am!”

I designed the life I am living, and I continue to design it every day. Ultimately my purpose in life is to help other people live their lives by design.”

    I am a Brazilian digital artist who loves transforming imagination into hyper-real visuals. I work with artificial intelligence and image editing to create what I always wondered as a child: how would our favorite characters look in real life? Over time, many of my artworks have gone viral and were featured in international publications. I have recreated realistic versions of cartoon characters such as Disney and The Simpsons, imagined how celebrities who died young would look today, and even gave modern faces to historical figures like Mona Lisa or Shakespeare. Beyond entertainment, I created Para Não Esquecer, a social project that revisits memorable criminal cases in Brazil. My goal is to honor victims, keep memory alive and remind society that justice and empathy matter. I also write for Bored Panda, where I create articles featuring artists, photographers, rescue stories and feel-good moments from around the world. My work aims to highlight creativity, kindness and emotional storytelling. In everything I do, my purpose is the same: to touch hearts, evoke emotion and make people feel something real.

    Wonderful story, but very stereotypical; of course people will say 'she was meant to be a woman' when she looks like that. I get that it's what the LGBT+ community need to put forward for acceptance (and that the non-LGBT+ community have enough trouble with *these* stories) but there are non-beautiful trans people out there who are also 'meant to be' their post-transition sex, who get told 'you're not really trans because if you were you'd be trying harder/passing better'.

    Fair point. I do think the act of publishing this article is a step in the right direction, though.

    She is so beautiful! It makes me so happy to see things like this, I love when people are able to be who they want to be (I know a lot of people can't), I myself am debating on whether or not I want to try to transition, like idk what my gender is but i hate my voice and i hate my hair and i hate my chest and my ass but i am TERRIFIED of change, so idk what to do

    Honestly, I feel like your case is more of an acceptance thing. You don't like your hair, ok then try new hairstyles or cut it or whatever to make your hair more likeable. In that process, you'll see the amazing things your hair can do and you'll appreciate it more. Trust me, I've been there, it was more of a racial thing, but I hated my hair for a long time. Your voice, chest, and butt are all parts of who you are and I don't think that's a reason to swap. I'm not telling you what to do, if you think transitioning is better, then ok. Your life isn't my life. I would suggest though trying other things before switching, because switching is something one shouldn't take lightly.

    I want to transition but I keep having second thoughts. So I told myself that I would start with a binder (once I move out cause my family is strict as hell), then, if I feel like myself in a binder, then I'll start with the transitioning

    I wish you luck. And I'm so sorry your family isn't supportive. I'd find a lgbtq support group, and talk with some people that know what you're going through.

    Elliot Page has shared a photo of a milestone moment since revealing details of his "life changing" surgery. The Oscar-nominated star posted a shirtless picture of himself spending a joyful moment by the pool to Instagram Monday, captioned: "Trans bb's first swim trunks." In December, the "Juno" and "X-Men: Days of Future Past" star announced that he is transgender and shared with fans that he/ they were the actor's preferred pronouns. The actor recently opened up about his transition surgery, describing it as "life-saving" and explaining that it led him to feel comfortable in his body for the first time.

    It is wonderful to see someone find their happiness. I don't know how anyone - regardless of your 'views' - can think this is wrong. Bless everyone who feels this lost. I wish you all the best in the world.

    right.. experimental drugs and surgery, attempting to imitate something he's not, making a mockery of womanhood due... sure, none of this is wrong at all.

    @Don't Look A textbook case for detransition is when a non-trans person was led to believe transitioning would make them happier, and it doesn't work. Since Jasmine is happier after her transition, I'm not sure where you're getting the detransition idea from.

    I watched a short documentary that included a very knowledgeable psychologist in this area, & trans herself. In the beginning the only expert center was in Boston.They went through so much evaluation & counseling & tests. It takes a lot of time to be completely sure that it wasn't about being unhappy etc. They made as sure as possible that it is about because They KNOW they are say not a male. They ARE a female. That IS the essence of it all. Sadly, this seems to have become an "in" thing. There are young people who have psychiatric issues look on the internet & think that this may be their answer so they decide to give it a try. They go to one of the many clinics that have popped up & they DO NOT know what they're doing. They have a ONE HOUR evaluation, start hormones ina week &surgery in 3 months. Quickly they realize that wasn't it & things are worse. They need to go back. That's what it is.
