So... That's all I am I guess...

Oh well...

I'll keep things to myself from now on... If this is all people see me as...

Don't worry any more...

Since this is "all I am"

Just so you all know. :) Okay thank you. :)

Now there DG,

What would ever give you the idea that you are seen as an attention seeker?

People in need deserve help. You deserve help :)

It is OK to post all that concerns you and what is on your mind.

Love you

Brenda

Someone told me that I am. So therefore I am sure that there are a lot of others out there that think that too. Oh well. I guess, even though I did swallow what I did... I guess it's not believed... Oh well then I guess... *shrug* Maybe I don't cut either... Mhm... Oh well then...

One person thinks I'm an idiot. Does everyone think I am an idiot? No. One person has said this. It doesn't everyone else is thinking it. Stop trying to assume other peoples thoughts. It does you not good. it does no one else any good.

If you're an attention seeker, then you're obviously not a good one.

I have no idea who you are. ^___^

Cheers.

I hope that's a compliment! And yes you do know who I am ;) You just don't realise it yet xD

Hello Digitalgremlin,

I do not think you are an attention seeker, and I wouldn't place much merit in it even if one person said it.

I could make a strong argument that any one that posts here is an attention grabber. We can't all be attention seekers can we?

What we are is a family that sticks and cares about eachother and tries to help out when needed because no one is perfect.

We all share a common bond because most of us do not fit neatly into the idea's of mainstream society. This is the reality of the situation, none of us asked to be born this way but here we are. You have done nothing unusual, the diversity of Laura's actually makes us stronger and more able to help each other out.

The road we lead is not an easy one, but being part of this group definitely helps. When I felt I was the only one in the world that had different feelings I was much worse and suicidal. Now because I came here and interacted, I feel much better. So please do not feel that you are merely here as an attention seeker. You are only expressing your own opinions.And owe no one an explanition for your thoughts. If everyone clammed up there would be no Laura's. If you are worried about one persons opinion telling you are a seeker of attention, then I am one person telling you that you are not, and it's ok you are among friends where you belong.

Take Care.

Love, Chandra

I think whoever called you that is an a-hole, and therefore all that person is is an a-hole.

Really, I don't think what that accomplishes in any way, shape, or form, especially on a site for trans support... I think you should tell a moderator or such about whoever is calling you names. Because that is not nice. And besides hurting you, if this person is going around on Laura's calling other people attention seekers, or who knows what other mean things, that is NOT cool.

Has some one said that you were an attention seeker? Recently? I know you felt that had been implied but that was quite awhile back and has been addressed several times in other threads about it.

Has it happened again? Was it said straight out or did you think someone meant that from something else they said?

Instead of concentrating so much on one comment why not focus on all the positive ones you get?

Did you change your mind about the hospital? Ithought you were going today. I will be good to get help so these things don't keep plaguing you and making you so anxious and upset.

The person said it directly. I have mentioned it to someone and I will tell someone else about it that can handle it better.

I am still going to the hospital. I am going tomorrow. I will make a thread right before I leave so that everyone knows that I have left.

It's really hard for me to focus on the positive things and not on the negative things although I do try. Not many people see that I try...

There are people that even think that I am not going to go... Well I am going this time... My mum knows about it...

Oh and we may move when I get out... To a better community :)

Meh so you're an "attention seeker" better to seek attention than to wither quietly. Hell I'm a bit of one myself. Who cares what they think. It's all about you and your thoughts. Some people are douchenozzles, it comes as no surprise there would be some here too. *hugs* Don't let the e-thugs beat you down.

      Thanks Davie! And don’t worry, I didn’t take it that way. It’s just such a big topic I can only hope to tackle it one bit at a time.

      This is not uncommon.  I started out going to the therapist in androgynous clothing: from the women's department, but plausibly masculine.  What made it easier was when I started going to a trans peer support group.  Most of the people there were presenting fully feminine, so I looked out of place in my androgynous clothing.  The peer pressure made it easier to dress in skirts.   I started out changing in a gender-neutral bathroom near the meeting room.  But I soon started wearing skirts in the car to and from the meetings.   Yes, it was nerve-wracking at first, but I soon realized that no one was looking and no one cared.    You can do this.

      In my last session my therapist is starting to suggest that I need to start exploring my gender identity in a more tangible way through wearing feminine clothing at least during sessions.  I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around her seeing me actually en femme.   I love and trust her, but the thought of being visibly feminine is scaring (and thrilling) me.  Is this a common thing in gender therapy?  How do I get past the fear?  More importantly, what should I wear?

      USA doctors denounce Cass Report, support trans folks.  The Endocrine Society And American Academy Of Pediatrics Respond To Cass, Reject Bans. In recent weeks, the Cass Review out of the United Kingdom has been used to argue for bans on care. The Endocrine Society and American Academy of Pediatrics respond, rejecting such arguments. —Erin Reed https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/endocrine-society-and-american-academy?publication_id=994764&post_id=144592467&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      Congratulations on your new family member!

      I felt the urge to date and felt just like a teenager again. I have recorded my journal titled Ashley's Life From Start to Present. I was very moody and agitated and happy. I think it was my body's way of being in shock. After about two months it got better. Remember that you aren't the only one transitioning because your wife is too. Consider yourself lucky because I lost mine because of it and so have many others. Just enjoy the ride.

      I'm sorry for asking so many questions about your situation. I'm in your camp and believe you should be able to be whoever you feel you need to be. I guess it the Union Shop Stewart coming out in me. I want you to be treated fairly as well as respectably. You're human, you're a client of theirs. Especially if you're paying money to be there.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Views, terminology, and aspects of how events came to be....aren't those directly related to the news item?  If not, I'm rather confused.

      Second warning, this has gotten far and apart from the NEWS item that it started out with and is becoming a flat out battleground over political leanings and terminology.
