Came Out To My Therapsit Today

so. it had been awhile since i saw my therapist (she's not a gender therapist), and i called her up today cuz i wanted to at least start going to therapy again since i have no insurance and doubt i'll be starting T anytime soon. she just happened to have a cancellation, so i went in to see her. i'd been wanting to come out to her since i started seeing her last year, so this time i brought my lil sis with me (she's the only one i'm out to) for moral support.

it went pretty well i guess. i mean, i was really nervous, even though i knew she wasn't going to reject me or anything... but now i'm just wondering what's next. anyway, i'm seeing her next week again, so i guess we can start making a plan then.

peace&love

That wasn't so bad was it?

All of this time not telling her and a year of lost opportunities - if you aren't careful you could end up like me 57 and still plodding along about to start hormones just a few months from my 58th birthday!

Love ya,

Sally

Dear, Dear NobleLight!!

Coming out to your sister was a very big and important step. Even bigger, was to come out to someone not in your family! My dear, you are walking the walk!! Keep walking, step by step, you are on your way!!

Don't worry about 'T' and other considerations right now. You are expressing to others your true gender, your mind, your soul!! That is what is so important. The other technical details will follow.

Keep going!! I am very proud of you!!

LOL

Congrats on telling your therapist and your sister. I'm finding out it's not that big a deal to most people and wonder why i made such a big deal about it.

I think it's because it's a huge deal to you, because it's your identity, it's who you are, it can hardly be more important to you. As close as you are to anybody else, your identity is going to matter less than other things (like their identity for example). Your identity is necessarily a big deal to you, but it's never going to be as big of a deal to someone else.

And NobleLight, congrats dude.

Noble.....

Very good, Sweetheart!

Doesn't it feel great to have a confidant now?? Someone that you can confide in ?

That is a very important step in your growth. Each step makes the others easier by a small bit and one day there will be no steps left to take! You'll have arrived!

Give yourself a HUGG for me.....OK?

Thanks.

Love....

Donna Jean

      What I don’t like about the dealer working on my car, yes the put the paper mats on the floor, but why don’t they remove them when they bring my car to me?  And why do they always mess with my radio settings and my electronic dashboard settings?  I get them the way I want them and they seem to want them at factory default.  Leave things like you find them!  Why is that so difficult?  And don’t tell me it’s because the updated the computer! Every time!.  And no I haven’t figured out everything yet on the new car.  I can’t even get my key programmed to move my seat when I get in and out.  It’s supposed to move the seat, the mirrors, the steering wheel and several other things.  My old Eddie Bauer was easy to program but then it only programmed seat location and pedal location.   ok now that we’ve had our rousing knock on cars and dealer mechanics.  What else shall we talk about?  Bras?  Seems like an appropriate subject for most of us.  I have several different types. Two are famous store push-up padded to are more common everyday lightly padded ant one is a no padding no strap slip and the last one is a front close longline no padding.  Now that one supports the theory that I am now a B cup on my own. I’d prefer a C but then I’m not so sure my blouses would still fit without pulling.  Ah the problem we have as women.  And sizes are never ever the same.  Oh I’m a size ??  But men I need a large shirt and 36-30 pants and they always fit.   we can’t buy anything off the rack with confidence it will fit and I hate having to take it home to try one and return what doesn’t fit.   we’ll time to do my hair and leave.   love ya   Willow

      Interest is an emotion that piques an individual's curiosity, motivating them to approach novel, complex, but not necessarily pleasant stimuli

      Hello we are The lake. So called because This One has not determined a name for oneself but has in a way created an environment to try out multiple names as different people. Currently Some of us use she/her pronouns and one uses he/him. We hope to learn more about being transgender and the intricacies involved. Once again it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance and we hope to be of further help in the future.

      https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/18-states-sue-biden-administration-transgender-worker-protections-rcna152239     When the R's are in power they love having the EEOC promulgate rules favoring employers.  But when the D's are in power, they just hate it when the EEOC makes or enforces rules that favor employee rights; most especially trans employee rights.  Then it becomes "government overreach."  Funny how that works out.    Carolyn Marie

      Wholeheartedly agree.  Whether a compliment is backhand or forehand, I take it gladly.  They are offered rarely enough these days.    Carolyn Marie
