Seymour! The house is on fire! No mother, it's just the Northern Lights.
Edit: Oh wow that's interesting that your feet have shrunk. But also have fun with that, size 10 is really hard to find. I'm technically a size 10.5, so it's great when I buy like vans or American brand shoes. So it's like, I can buy a 10 and be a bit of a tight squeeze, or I can be a size 11 and find fuck all.
Damn, oh well, apparently I might drop two sizes, if I'm a lucky. I get a bit dysphoric looking at ladies shoes so I've not really looked very much. I'm still pretty early on though. I'm starting to notice a lot of subtle and some not so subtle changes. It's pretty freakin cool.
I won't say it's impossible because I can still find shoes in my size, it's just a lot harder to look for. Though there are some brands I like that make larger shoe sizes which is cool. My stepmum has wide feet so it's really hard for her to find shoes as well. I know that won't stop the dysphoria magically (I wish it could tho, because like even though we're opposite, I 100% am with you and totally get it), but just know that even for cis women it's hard to find the right shoes.
