@ElizabethStar @KymmieL @Lexa83 Liz I think that is great the progress made at your wife’s birthday. I thought my wife and I were moving in that direction too. Signs and conversations were seeming to go in that direction. Then this weekend hit. First, she got upset because I changed for bed in front of her. Then Saturday more SHTF. I’ll never be ok, I’ve told you that! I can’t look at you anymore. And more. This continued Sunday when I told her I wasn’t going to church. We talked a lot on Sunday and today. Things are better but this was my worst weekend in a long time. Depression. Crying, fighting... the whole gambit. She did apologize. I said it would be better for me if she didn’t suggest she was doing better about me and then explode. She said sometimes she thought it be easier if I was full time but I pointed out I wasn’t because she didn’t want me out full time. very difficult time. Willow -

I have to drive 5hrs for everything trans---but I have found this gal locally who does fantastic electrolysis and she is fast! She knows all the trans people, which she is quite protective of and that means I am also safe. I have this grey-white beard hair too. She is just a local gal that got a degree and understands how the world turns here. She also is serving as my therapist, ha ha! My real one is 5+ hrs away and doesn't understand rural people that well. Maybe you can talk the laser person into getting certified for electrolysis. It is good money. ---WILLOW--- -

Even though not an MSW, I have many friends in the Trans community who are MSW and MFT counselors. To some degree it depends on where your are and where you are applying. Places like California have requirements that they must consider you if you are Trans. Thus I do know people getting the jobs. Call your local LGBTQ Center and see if they know of Trans Accepting places you can get a job, some have clinics that do take on interns, who are snapped up by other places. it may not be the highest paid, but it will take care of licensing requirements. Location Location Location!! Planned Parenthood who has family counseling services and is now having clinics for Trans people, and other Service Organizations would also be possibilities where I know people are getting jobs, especially as this pandemic thing is rolling. -

@HollyNoel hang in there - I have been doing electrolysis for about 7 months locally (thank god) but I understand that laser doesn't work (I'm gray as well) and I really am horrible at shaving and it is driving me crazy - BUT - you will find someway, somehow to get it done - I have faith - GROUPON (to get deals) and if you have to drive - you can practice Voice Feminization exercises during the trip or emotion expansion or podcasts about LGBTQ+ topics. -

Have you tried therapists in your area to see if there is available space with them? My therapist has had to turn away patients. I figure Psychology Today listings might also help and networking via LinkedIn perhaps? You've probably tried those routes but it's the best I can come up with for you to try. -

@Willow Farmer Thank you. I have yet to do electrolysis, there isn't any place in my town that does electrolysis, the places the does hair removal only does laser and that wont work for me. My beard is mostly grey. I have to travel to Chicago to get electrologist. That sucks. -

Today Monday March 8, I came out to another Church friend yesterday who was very supportive, even asked me for my pronouns and new name before I had a chance to inform him. I definitely will finish my list by Easter this year. And today is day 1 of HRT! The journey goes forward! -

Perhaps sitting in the clinic and signing on the dotted line… the informed consent papers.
