I have my psychiatrists appointment Tuesday coming it is for a diagnosis and a referral to the gender identity clinic. I'm worried because psychiatrists are meant to be bullies luckily my mom and counselor will be there so he wont bully me so much.

Hey less than 24 hours until my appointment I'm getting really really nervous but at least I can speak with my counselor she along with my mom is the only thing keeping me alive at the moment but I'm sure I will have plenty to look forward to in the future. The new place is OK but I really miss family theres some marriage trouble between my mom and dad right now, My dad loves the F1 so my mom got them tickets to see the F1 in Spain and my dad said he doesn't want to go because she never asked him when it was a surprise and he said he wants to sort me out first? I suppose he wants me to go to college again education and work is always more important than health and happiness in our family *sigh*. They had many marriage problems before but my mom has threatened to leave my dad and I don't want that to happen because I know they love each other and I'd rather disappear of the face of the earth than have them split up.

Kia Ora KL,

I know it's sad that your parents are having problems but it's up to them to solve it themselves and you being who you are is NOT the cause of their problems....In their own way both your parents love you dearly and both want what's best for you...However it would be best if you got YOURSELF sorted out with the psychiatrist first...And wanting to disapear off the the end of the earth...could be the straw that breaks the camel's back-both parents no doubt would 'blame' themselves or each other...I'm sure you wouldn't want that to happen...THINGS WILL WORK OUT ! Just give it time and TIME is what you've got plenty of...

Thanks Princecharmless I just come back from my appointment he wants me to conquer most of my depression before being referred to the gender clinic so he has prescribed me some anti depressants just to help I then have an appointment with him again in February to see if my state is better and if it is then I get a referall. It sounds logical and have no disagreements with him except the fact he said I should have all my female stuff taken away for a bit (yh right) lol.

Kia Ora KL,

Remember it's not the clothes that make you female...you are what you are no matter what you wear...As for the anti depressants...It's important that you take them but see your doctor if they make you feel uncomfortable... Around this time of year, xmas pressure builds up and winter's cold wet damp weather and dark days can add to the feelings of depression especially in Europe and areas of North America where they experience really cold winters...During these cold dark winter months you should get some bright big posters of sunshine beaches etc, or ones of mountains with plenty of crispy white snow [a travel agent might have some one disued ones] and stick them up on your lounge-bedroom walls somewhere where you see them often B)^_^ ...'EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS' KL, February will be here before you know it! :)

TY for all your help Jendar I'll try and keep my mood up and I'm sure confidence will follow very soon. I hope the anti depressants will make a difference I didn't really give them the chance before. My cousin has been asking after me I think I will surprise her next time I go over my nans haven't seen them for over 2months :( I'm looking forward to Christmas this year word has it I might be getting a really expensive dress :lol: can't wait.

      There's many words to describe the same idea -- excellent, good, amazing, incredible, great, and other synonyms, for example. It's a shame that some people can't realize that the reason that so many words exist is that it's the human experience; There's a million ways to feel the same exact thing, or to express it. That includes gender. Not everyone wants to express their gender the same way, trans or no. If we try to say in order to be trans, you have to do a, b, and c, you deny all those "flavors" and "hues" that make up the human experience.   That's just my five cents, though

      I also play guitar, not very well though and dabble in writing poems and songs. It is a very peaceful way to relax.        💗 Cynthia

      I think the first thing may be to realize we have shared interests and shared opposition.  I read an article not long ago by someone who decided to non-op and non-hrt and her transgender friends basically decided she was a traitor and not really trans and had no right to speak on trans issues.  She said many trans people say you aren't really trans unless you do the whole surgical route and legal, etc.  Some insist on the gender binary, others insist on a spectrum.  There must be an agreement to disagree.  Not all of us here have the same viewpoint or the same experience or the same condition.  But we can identify common interests, like walking into a public restroom without fear of arrest, or the right to medical care.    The divisions are severe, heart-felt, and real, but from a practical point of view we need to lay some of those aside when we can for the common interest.  Some of those we cannot lay aside because of personal integrity, but we can work across the aisle, so to speak, something sadly lacking in the public arena today.

      Thanks Vicky!  I made a mistake with my topic heading, I consider myself as a Lady but I know that not everyone here thinks that way so I apologize for that.   I should say Hi everyone!! 💗 Cynthia

      Welcome to the Forums Cynthia.   We do have gentlemen here as well who are some of the nicest guys you can get to know.

      @Mirrabooka@Abigail Genevieve Let's not neglect the severe divisions within the Trans and NB sector as well along those lines.  Where we have Non Op & Non HRT and Cross Dressers, Gender Benders, Gender Fluid, Agender et al VS. the full surgical route takers with GCS, FFS, BA and vocal surgery,   Which of those segments gets to speak for the others?  How do we turn them into a cohesive force for good just among those nominally under the Trans shade tree??

      Hi, I am Cynthia, 62 year old lifelong crossdresser.  I have been dressing off and on for as long as I can remember. In the last ten years or so I have noticed that my dressing has become a major part of my life, I went through all of the purging and confusion and I came out feeling more like a woman every day.  Self acceptance is very powerful if you truly accept who you are.    Over the last few years I have built a nice wardrobe and now spend about 80% of the time as my true self. I only wear male clothing when visiting with family and running errands. I don’t know if I am trans or not, all I know is that I absolutely love myself as a woman and that’s how I feel about myself, that I am Cynthia.   I love wearing makeup, dresses and jewelry, it feels so good and natural to me.     I am thankful to have found this special place and look forward to being a part of this beautiful community!!  I hope to learn about myself and also to participate and interact daily and to help others in their journey as well.    If I could I would absolutely live full time as a woman and hopefully with help and encourage I will one day fulfill this dream. I love being a woman and thinking of myself this way. I’ve never thought much about my pronouns but I definitely like she/her for myself!!   Thanks for reading and I look forward to being here and sharing with you all!!     💗 Cynthia

      Good morning Felix,   I don't know how aware you are of the motives behind Military Boot Camp, but the most important thing it's designed to do is break you down, physically and mentally, weeding out those who can't make it. If you really want to be a Marine after you graduate high school? Stop believing you do things better when you're high. Clean your lungs by filling them with the fresh air of cross country running. Start small, run around the block, then around the track, then from your house to the track. Run everywhere! Run, run, run, and then when you can't go any further. Run some more. Do this feeling like you're going into Boot Camp in top physical condition, and your training will still break you down. That's what it's designed to do, and you'll earn the right to be called a Marine. The best thing about your wishes to become a Marine, is that it's something you can surely do with a proper mindset. Yes, it's very physical, but most of all it's mental. My brother-in-law is a retired Marine, and I love his stories ranging from his time in boot camp, to his time as a drill instructor. These conversations are not started by him. They're usually started by my nephew who is also a Marine. I can't say enough how proud I am of my family and friends who have or are currently serving in the Armed Forces. I will be equity proud of you too.   Best wishes, stay positive and motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was always playing the boy in house, and I HATED wearing dresses. I used to dress up super masc and go out to dinner to just make sure I could still pass as a boy. I thought of it as a game but.. uh.. nope.
