When you’re taking pictures of yourself, don’t use a mirror, it’ll double the dirt and distort you. Just put your phone on a little tripod (very cheap) at waist level roughly 6 feet away, and use the self-timer. Try not to go any lower, that’s how you look like a giant with a chin. Too high above you, and you can look like you have a massive had, and a small body.
Face the light source, not away from it, and diffuse lighting is generally better.
There’s loads of posing guides out their, generally just try to get your whole body standing up. Maybe hit THE POSE.
Oops, forgot to hit post when I first finished, no matter.

Underrated transitioning tip is have a hobby. There’s so much down time after checking off certain things and simply waiting is misery fuel. Looking back over the last few years, it’s the only thing that got me through some of the tougher days.
Wish dysphoria didn’t depress me so much bc I haven’t enjoyed a hobby in a while, especially not for a prolonged period. Such long stretches of time where I do not have any motivation or enjoyment for anything. idk if its one of the worst things about it but its definitely one that sucks
