Diagnosing Nikki

Well... Just three weeks ago I had my very first appointment with an actual gender therapist up in Minneapolis. Friday is going to be my second appointment where I drive for another four hours there have an hour appointment, then drive four hours back. This is particularly important to me tomorrow because I am getting an official diagnosis! Ik it seems a little behind a lot of the ladies here, but I'm über excited! This feels like another wonderful step in the right wonderful direction! Next stop: recomendation letter and hormones!! Which could possibly be by the end of this school year! Which would be just in time for my evil plan of going full time in college (fresh start fresh new gender role!) the pieces are falling together, the dominoes are starting to tumble. I'm rambling. Can u tell I'm excited?!? Lol

hugz, Nikki

Yay! I'm excited for you =). I have my first appointment with a therapist next Thursday. I don't get to see an actual gender therapist though =/. Money is too tight for us so my mom is making me go through our insurance so that it is free. So I guess it's good that I will get free therapy but I don't like that the person(s) I talk to will have no experience. Oh well. Again, I'm very happy for you and good luck!

My first therapist wasn't a gender therapist either, and he was only fifteen minutes away! :P but It will be fine for you, my first therapist had never had someone like me but he loved learning and dedicated himself to reading and looking at anything trans I recommended! He was really nice and good luck!! It is wonderful having someone who listens

Thanks! Wow, that makes me feel better. If I get someone who is dedicated that would make me feel much better. I just don't want them to somehow mess me up by them not knowing anything :mellow:

      https://www.wbtw.com/news/grand-strand/horry-county/lgbtq-community-reacts-to-sc-approval-banning-gender-affirming-care-for-transgender-minors/     If not struck down by the courts this bill will hurt trans kids.  And that bit about "don't worry, you can transition when you're an adult?"  Don't believe that for a minute; come next session, adult trans health care will be targeted.   Carolyn Marie

      https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/judge-strikes-ny-countys-ban-female-transgender-athletes-roller-derby-rcna151806     Pretty common sense, straightforward decision.  Someone overstepped their authority - imagine that?   Carolyn Marie

      PM any or several of the Moderators or Administrators if you want to have something changed due to spelling errors, or if you simply want to have an entire post deleted.  We do not allow members to edit their own posts since there are some items we restrict from being posted.  Those things are in the Community Rules and if a Staff member has removed something because of the rules we do not want it coming back.  https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules/   Use the PM system to contact us and include a link to the post you want changed.

      Do I ever feel? There isn't a single minute that goes by that I feel that way. I have such a strong hate for what I have that there isn't a word out there for it.
    • Ladypcnj
      Are members allowed to edit or delete their post? I can't delete or remove my post if there are misspelled words.

      I already tried that. Either too old like 60's and 70's or married. Not many people who would want to date a trans woman in dead red Mississippi. Maybe once things calm down just get a Mustang GT and just give up on it. Both are going to bring joy and pain. At least I could learn and share my love of cars with my kids when they get that old. I wouldn't even know what to do if someone said they wanted me. I would've already been thinking in my mind they are just going to ghost me so what's the point. I just don't know what to do anymore. I tried putting myself out there online and out in person. I haven't tried a bar yet although that's probably a bad idea. Maybe just to experience it again. I haven't been to one since 2013. The only problem I see is I'm not a night owl for sure. I go to bed at 8-830. My expectations were just that I wouldn't get rejected last. I have been able to handle a good bit of it but this one really hurt. I guess that's what happens when you have some hopes and expectations. It's not like I have another friend IRL to talk about this. She is my only one. I wished I didn't put myself out there.

      As one who had to deal with the Porn/Adult Entertainment business as commercial, taxpaying businesses on a professional level, I can say that they are in it for money and the highest percentage of their income comes from ultra conservative areas where adequate Medical and Mental Health Profession and University Science instruction on Trans issues are banned.    It makes me wonder how much porn literature is hidden behind the 13 Bibles and Bible Study guides on some people's family bookshelves.

      Do you ever feel trapped in a body that doesn't feel like yours?

      There's the old thing of getting out and getting involved in things in the community and meeting people that way. Does your church have a food pantry? Does it have service opportunities you could plug into otherwise? You might run into someone that way. 
    • Ashley0616
      Well that didn't go well. She said she is intentionally single. When will I just stop thinking about putting myself out there. It really hurt but rejection and getting ghosted is just my second language apparently. The one person I have told all my dark secrets and didn't run off. At least we are friends. I'm happy only when I'm sleeping and that is it because things actually go my way from time to time. Just another wonderful day of me. SMDH!

      In their minds, yes, unless it is clearly, consistently, forcefully articulated by those who represent trans people that we are not.  I'm not sure who that would be.
