Hello world! While I am way not close to coming out to the rest of the world, I have finally come out to myself and then to our blessed moderator. Now I am happy to introduce myself to members of this site. My name is Misha. I am a MtF. This fact has haunted me since childhood. Many years later, I am trying to come to grips with it. I will need your help. I am planning to see a gender therapist in the near future and looking forward to it. I am who I am and who god made me, right? And btw, I am a pretty good person and only getting better! Regards, all, Misha.

Hello Misha,

Won't you come in and have a seat, get comfortable and do look over the forum rules - there is a link on the top of just about every page.

Now I'll be right back with a cup of hot cocoa and some fresh baked cookies.

I am glad that you are coming to terms with all of this and doing things the right way, a therapist is a must.

Welcome to the forums and your new family, I am so glad that you have found us.

Love ya,

Sally

Hi Misha,

Welcome. You picked a good place when you came here to Laura's.

And don't be scared by who you are. It took me a very long time to finally know that I could just be fine with my self and to quit denying. What is so strange is that I didn't really know ME and that is finally all opening up...

Here you can relax. And get to know more about what your possibilities are.

Welcome to Laura's :)

Thanks, Alex. I think that Blitzen is an American way of saying "lightning dog" in German. What a cool image. I love it. Misha.

Vanna,

Thank you for the kind words of guidance and for the advice. I will start attending soon. I have a therapist meeting tomorrow and I am nervous about it. I am writing this wearing some really pretty briefs, bra, hose and girlish shorts with a tomboy shirt and baseball hat. You know what? It feels like me! I just need to figure out how to tap this external rightness with internal and figure out how to fit this crazy square peg into the round hole. I know I will need your help but am very optimistic. Hugs, Misha

Huggs,

Wow, Emily. Never a Marine but boy should we talk. SF. And thank you. Isn't this crazy? Definitely the bravest (non-stupid) thing I have ever done. And I have been places and done things.

My admiration and thanks, Misha.

Janica,

Saying it to myself for the first time was like a tidal wave. And I still want to sneak back out. But as I think back on the last long time I see it slapping me in the face over and over for years. Time to man, or more appropriately, "woman" up. I do feel some peace. Thank you, Misha

      Same here.  My mind is a jumbled mess.  I'm no great philosopher, nor particularly educated.  Don't open my brain's closet, as all the junk might come tumbling out.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Its been a long day.  I had a good trip with my husband, kind of sorry I had to come home.  I mean, I love my partners, but I feel overwhelmed by the chaos at times.  It was nice being able to just drive and talk for two days, and not feel rushed at meals.  Stopped at a buffet off I-40 in Oklahoma, and I was able to nibble comfortably for two hours!  And taking a shower in a place where I don't have to bother hanging up the towels for later   Its all about the little things....

      Hi @AmandaJoy Welcome, and nice to meet you! Congratulations on your Self-Affirmation!  As you've already discovered you're in great company here on this Forum.  It took me 60+ years also.   I understand your thrill and desire to proceed full-steam-ahead but that you've already realized to meter your Journey.  So, I will just end with what I tell most new Members when they arrive ... Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      Did go in my shop and fix my truck,new front brakes.I got that done before it got worse.Luckily I did not drive it when it first started.Drove my car to work instead

      Hey @KayC I need another tutorial session on this place with you.  Maybe we can talk on Discord or the phone and I can share my screen and do a few messages while Asking you some questions about how this place is organized. How are you doing in the real world?? ... "real world" ???  What is this "real world" of which you speak?
    • Michelle_S
      @VickySGV Ha!  Finally figured THAT out!  Though I hate to confess just how long it took me to figure out WHERE to begin typing that "@" sign.  (So I just won't confess it!  ... giggles) I am not sure how private this message to you is ... for example I was going to make a guess about your location (you say near a major earthquake fault) and while there are many places in CA which fit that description, I live near one as well. But I am not sure if being asked that in a public forum is something you want, and I don't know if I am talking publicly or privately right now.  (So, obviously, till I learn what is what, I treat EVERYTHING as public). I think Kay might have already told me about the "@" sign but I forgot ... Guess I have blonde roots ... (I'm actually a Brunette ... Grey but the box keeps me a brunette ... still the number of mistakes I make and how slow I am with learning things constantly reminds me that I must be blonde on the inside!!  ... giggles)

      @KymmieL do they have you on anti depressants?  Are they certain they are the right ones for you?  Has a psychiatrist been involved?  My physician first put me on an anti depressant and when things got worse for me he added one that was the initial cause of my cancer.  My therapist recommended I had a different need changed things. My psychiatrist agreed with the particular underlying condition and the choice of medications.   everyone is different but if one medication isn’t working there are many different types and different underlying conditions that require different treatments.  No meds mentioned because what didn’t work and what did all depends on your case, not mine.   Willow

      To me loving myself means having the courage to live the way I want and to be me.     I hardly ever really like how I look but I feel good knowing I am trying to be the best version of myself that I can be. It is definitely a struggle sometimes though.  💗Cynthia

      I had a five hour road trip today.  I’m trying to grow my hair out so I just pushed it back with a pink hair band, lipstick and gloss, no makeup.    White spaghetti strap top, short black skirt, white sandals with pink toenails!  A couple of rings and bracelets, necklace and hoop earrings.   I felt like a hot mess but it’s my favorite way to travel!  
    • KymmieL
      Glad you had a good day, @Willow Mine on the other hand sucked. I have been screwing up again, I even got written up. I may have to educate them on major depression and disability. not that it will work.    OH, well. May be another job I lost because of me. Yes, my depression is about down at the magma level   Kym

      This bag is really working out for me.  I had worn out the back on my yin-yang bag so I picked this one up.  It wasn't long before I cut off the flap on it and braided a hemp strap for it.  The zipper is the best feature.  I can spin the bag around and I'm not afraid of losing anything.  I've taught myself to keep all the essential things in it and nothing more.  Here is what made the cut:   Notepad Sharpie Ballpoint Pen Teaspoon Glasses Phone (most of the time) Wired Headphones and/or Bluetooth Carmex and/or Lipstick Flash Drive Current Braiding Project Wallet Hair Clip   And on my keys I have my one inch Swiss Army Knife with scissors and a bottle opener that I like using with mason jar lids.   I don't miss pockets at all now.  The bag is fun and practical.  I can set it on the ground to get everything off my body.  If I need something, I'm looking for a fairly large object.  I always have something to work on with the braiding project.
