For a while now i have been at a standstill i had told my parents but i had not crossdressed since i was 5 or 6. just the other day i went to the mall with a friend and we bought a few basics and now im hooked. i hope to have a full wardrobe in the next few months.

I havent dared try makeup yet but im happy just being dressed (complete with homemade breast forms) i am soo happy!!

Im going to go shopping by myself next time just to gain confidence and so im not so dependant on my friends.

anyways, thanks for all of your help and support everybody!

P.S what are the little transparent hangy bits by the straps of a dress for?

Contagious - be careful! HA Are you talking about the little cloth loops for securing the dress to the hanger? They slip over the hook.

My first breast forms were water balloons - feezing cold at first!

Shopping - isn't it FUN :)

You'll find that its really no big deal to go into a store and buy whatever you want. The salespeople are usually very nice and helpful. After a few times, if you havn't done it yet, you'll get more comfortable and start trying things on at the store.

It makes it so much easier. You don't have to return something if its too big/small. Plus you get to see what it looks like on you instead of just on a hanger. I've seen many things that I thought I would like only to put them on and then wonder what I was thinking... :wacko:

OMG Lizzy, my first ones were latex gloves filled with water... Those were the days...

Also rolled up socks! And pantyhose stuffed into a ball, and I have heard some CDers use rice in cotton bags for a realistic weight - hummmm, if you are on a desert island, you wouldn't go hungry!

I once made forms using gel from whereever - gel in the computer wristpads work, cut in half with scissors, put in those Chineese rice bowls, heat the gel at 150 and it melts - the bowl are rounded inside - smokes a bit so i wolud wait until no one was home! Awwww crazy days! Blue gel = blue breasts!

So whats the best home made breast form? I am quite partial to pantyhose rolled up in a ball, ooh, and I have tried, don't laugh, but those sponge ball things that you use in the shower...they aren't sponge, its not cloth...tis like a rough, frilly type material, in a ball, good for washing your body with soap...but yeah, two of those, same size. Realistic look, but gets itchy, doesn't feel too right. What else could I use?

and congratulations on going out, great for you! :)

Hey thisismylife!!

Good going!! Feels good doesn't it!! To go and and buy a dress that you love!! I applaud you to have the courage at your age to go out and buy the clothes that are you!! I furthur applaud you in your desire to shop by yourself (now that is really an experience, especially the first time!!) you will remember it always!!

When you decide to try makeup, I suggest the Neutrogena brand. For me, it works the best.

Now, as far as the transparent things on the dress, I don't know. None of my dresses ever had that. If I were to guess, maybe they have something to do with strap adjustment.

Anyway, congratulations!!

Love

Great for you. Honestly I'd still be far too afraid to shop for anything.

But once I get my driving license maybe I'll buy something. But personally I'd rather be able to order something online, people in shops here are too judgmental.

Congratulations thisismylife that is a real milestone that you have taken. Something I have not really managed to do yet, well not without being dragged into the shop Haha. As for breast forums, I have been quite lucky there, I am a little on the plump side and have man breasts which are quite big anyway and with the correct bra they look not too bad. Hopefully when I finally start HRT they will develop more into feminine breasts than the man boobs I have at the moment lol.

I can't believe i just said all that, im gonna hit add reply before i change my mind

      Dump that doctor!   A doctor is a HIRED SERVICE PROFESSIONAL.  No more "holy" than a mechanic, a plumber, or anybody else in the trades.  Just like anybody else you hire, if they have a bad attitude or do crap quality work, get rid of them ASAP.  It amazes me how in the USA we don't have clear prices related to medical services, and how people will put up with crap from a doctor that they wouldn't from anybody else.  And it seems that doctors give bad service at approximately the same rate as other tradespeople.  Good help is hard to find!   Your body is more important than your car or your bathtub. Don't be afraid to assert yourself.

      I can't do that for myself...my partners do that for me. I guess I'm damaged goods.  I think part of me never totally grew up, because I'm not able to do adulting on my own.  There's no "wise parent" part of me because I didn't get here on my own.    I was stuck in my parents' house until GF rescued me.  Before age 26, my parents made all my decisions.  After age 26, I maybe decide some things, but mostly GF or my husband take care of it.  I need my partners around to remember even the basic stuff, like sleeping and eating at reasonable times.  Solo, I'm totally lost.

      Now that I think about it, part of why I enjoy my noisy family so much is because I don't have to have much of an inner life.  I don't really like being left to my own thoughts....all that mess in my brain.  Maybe better to have an active outer life than an inner one?

      Sometimes we are faced with situations where the only response possible is grief.  Things will never be as we want them; people die, we lose things we cherish, we do not obtain what we earnestly desire.  I see some of those situations here; there are tools available to help you through the grieving process.  It's not easy.

      I would be happy to just have 4 disabilities. I take 27 different medications and it does little. I tried working when I got out of the military but couldn't maintain one. I have a lot of mental disorders myself. It would be neat to learn about each other's background. I do understand just wanting to be normal. My job is a stay-at-home parent which is exactly tougher than a regular job especially being a single parent.

      Rich as in happy? Far from it. I'm happy about my kids but I shouldn't put all my happiness on them. I take care of myself and do the best I can. I'm happy and content that I have a house and car but nothing that can't be taken away from me like in an instant. I completely lack motivation and don't even want to do my walks anymore. I can't get a membership somewhere because I have kids that are mostly with me. I put myself out there for hoping something to come up and be good, but it's has always been like getting hit in the back of the head.

      Hi, I don't think I have enough posts to PM yet I don't think (I think it's 5?). I'm poor myself since I can't work, but my parents are luckily helping me get surgery covered by insurance since I am still on their insurance and they have flexible spending each year. I live far away from them, halfway across the country, but I'm glad I have their support.   On the day to day... having a disability sucks. I wish I could just work like everyone else and have a normal life, but my mental disorders prevent me from doing most things.   I'm glad someone else understands at least.

      Very pretty y'all. 4" heels is the max I can handle and not for long period of time. I don't see how women wear 5" and above. I love my feet. I sure don't want to punish them.

      Well just been doing a lot of self reflection and a lot of gender dysphoria that has caused me to break down. The realization has been that I'm a trial period for men and women don't even consider me. It's getting dim. I have put myself out there by force even when I didn't want to. I have one friend but still haven't seen her IRL yet. We talk on Sundays and it's always me that starts it. Another person only talks to me when they want something. It's never been hey how are you doing. It's almost a month to my birthday and it's all just my mom, sister, nephew that are coming. So much for a 40th birthday party. I hate these posts. I want to be optimistic, positive and cheerful but I haven't seen anything go my way. I'm making it by the skin of my teeth. I wished I could just go into a coma for a year or just not wake up.

      Sorry I have been absent a lot but I do read your posts though. 
    • Ashley0616
      @Michelle_S lol it took a year to get that many. It's nice to have a large number but having the thoughts of helping someone far outweigh the number of posts. I have been absent a lot lately. Back at it tomorrow though lol.
