Finding A Therapist

My parents have recently agreed to let me go to therapy, I doubt they know for what yet, and even agreed to pay for it. My main issue right now is the therapists that I was recomended to are not as covered as some others. I was given a list of around 80 therapists within 50 miles and rather than move down the list to find someone I was hoping that somebody here would know of a good therapist near Dallas, TX preferably a bit north of there. If you know for sure that they are in the TI providers network that would be great.

Thanks,

Anthelia

Just so no one thinks that I have ignored Anthelia's request for help, we have been talking in the PMs and she is waiting to hear back from on of the therapists that we discussed.

I didn't want anyone to see this and think that I turned my back on her - I just can't do that.

Love ya,

Sally

We know that you couldn't do that, Sally.......

You're far too caring and sweet!

Love

Yup, Sally gave me the link for from what I am reading the perfect candidate for a therapist. My only concern right now is on the payment, I am hoping that I can either work something out with her or she knows someone else that would be a good person to see. Will update this with more information.

Momma Sally won't ever let you down! {About that loan we discussed... 138% interest per week seems a little steep... plus my first born child?}

AND

Anthelia - please keep us posted

Well I discussed with my parents about seeing the therapist Sally recomended and they are fine with that, I am now in the process of setting up an appointment.

Yeah!

You will love her!

She will make you feel right at home and you won't ever be afraid to talk to her.

Congratulations.

Love ya,

Sally

Just got an meeting set up for this coming Tuesday. On the one hand im very nervous about actually talking to someone but at the same time im looking forward to it. Primarily I would just like someone to help me sort out my feelings and emotions. On a good note, my mom is very happy about me taking the inititave to talk with someone.

Were any of you nervous about your first session?

I came very close to cancelling!

I forced myself to go and I have never looked back!

Ieven left the office number at home, I think to keep me from finding her office.

I wondered around the lobby and I didn't really want to walk up to someone and tell them who I was looking for because they would all know what she did.

There was a lady standing out in the court yard using her cell phone - she saw me wondering around and asked if she could help, so I told her who I was looking for and she talked into the phone saying, "I have to go, I'll call you back."

She walked over to this 6'4" 350plus pound man with a mustach and said, "You must be Sally." and put out her hand, I took her hand and we have been best friends ever since.

Relax and have fun, your therapist is on your side.

Love ya,

Sally

      Accidents happen.  So do heat-of-the-moment murders, without premeditation or trans-related hate.  It will take a trial to really figure it out.     One thing we can see from this is that it is people in our circles of acquaintances, friends, and partners who are the ones who usually hurt us.  Not someone random. We have to be careful who we trust.

      Friday May 17th is IDAHOBIT (International Day Against HOmophobia, BIphobia and Transphobia).   Do you acknowledge or celebrate it? Do you do anything special for it, like taking part in any organized events or activities?   I'm not an activist and I prefer to fly under the radar, but I am slowly becoming aware of important dates. I have been aware of the date of IDAHOBIT for a few weeks now, but other important 'rainbow' dates have not been etched into my brain yet.    I will wear my favorite pride t-shirt as a token acknowledgement of the day, but it probably won't be seen; cool weather here will mean that it will be hidden under a sweater.

      Happiness for me comes from being cognizant of the things that make me feel good.   Sunshine.   Pandering to my inner woman.   Knowing that some people in my life really 'know' me.   Vacations, and Eggs Benedict at an alfresco cafe.   My wife and I being telepathic.   Grandchildren.   Music.   Wine!

      True.  Every trans death is not a hate crime. There is so much hate expressed by some people, that we kinda get to expect it.

      happiness to me is being ME. At all times, and it has yet to happen.

      Hello & welcome, giz! Your post makes me remember how excited I was to join here too. I also had queer friends at the time I joined, but any of my trans friends lived a long distance away. So most local queer friends are gay & I felt uncomfortable coming out to them bc I couldn't assume they'd understand genderqueerness. So it was a thrill to join here and immediately have access to do many wonderful, genuine, kind & thoughtful friends-to-be.   Are you saying you're concerned that if you come out to your queer friends that somehow your parents will find out?     My love, I just want to affirm that that's not a weird dysphoria. It's just dysphoria. And we definitely get it. You're in good company here!     Look forward to seeing you around here & getting to know you. I shoot for androgynous appearance as well, leaning towards masculine.   Hope you're having a splendid day!

      Listening to a YouTube mix for me and this song came up and I immediately fell in love again and just want to play music with like minded musicians playing OUR music and feel the joy and fulfillment even if no one else gets it. I love to fall into the music....

      What is happiness for you?

      Funny.....   The day-centre transportation director told me yesterday morning that I was to receive an award, my picture on the website, etc... for having won the billiards tournament (I knew better).   Later that afternoon he returns to "shake my hand" and tell me, "thanks for participating."   I could have told him that was all I would receive earlier. I'm not well liked by management.

      Feelings are joyful as happiness spreads.
