Well now the jitter start.as soon as they get it they're going to let me know when they're going to forward my meds to my local pharmacy.. I got the consent form around noon and mailed it out like 12:20 ..Sometimes I get overly excited and say things that are just on my mind. Sometimes I just need a friend that's going to say it'll be okay.

I got an email from my provider it seems they didn't receive my consent form from two weeks ago. They're sending another one out for signature. I'm starting to feel is it really worth me transitioning?I mean has anybody ever started hormones and just stop because they didn't feel like going through the hassle. I just haven't been feeling too female lately and haven't dressed an over two and a half weeks.

Please don't give up, Denise.  Many, many of us have had setbacks along the way.  We've learned to be persistent, patient and to persevere, and you must also.  This small bump in the track won't derail your train.

I can say that too, and I am 11 years into transitioning.  My only difference is I have nothing left that did not come from a women's department, but it is not glamours by any means.  I remember the time I spent doing and re-doing paperwork and it  was a downer and one helluva roller-coaster ride but, as @Carolyn Marie said, Trans people are highly resilient and make it through very rough stuff.  Hang in there and roll with it and you will get the job done.

@Denisenj I'm sorry to read this but don't despair.  I had a similar experience when I started HRT as my therapist was in one state and my endocrinologist was in another.  It is frustrating but it will be resolved, and after all these years I can honestly say the extra month (yes Month!) really didn't make much of a difference in the long run.

 

As to not feeling to feminine?  Yes!  me too.  It happens so again don't despair.  It doesn't mean you shouldn't continue on your journey.  Even after being full time I would ask myself if it was worth the effort.  Like anything in life, it has its ups and downs.  I'm sure you didn't expect a bed of roses.  (don't forget those thorns!)  

 

I'm glad you checked in and vented a little.  Thats why we're here.  To offer support when things seem to go sideways.  


Hugs, Jani

Hi again, sorry to hear about your delay! Dont let it get you down, we all suffer setbacks in life whether its transitioning, work, our lovelives or whatever. No one can tell you if transitioning is right for you, the only one that can do that is you. Listen to your heart hon, you may not feel feminine today or tommorrow, but ask yourself the bigger question. Is she always there, waiting to come out? Its not an easy road, there will always be ups and downs whether your male, female or somewhere inbetween. Its how we face those challenges that says the most about us.

Hugs Traci Lynn

(Just thought about it, why do Alot of us use first and middle names. Because males dont?)

      Back again love conquers all I don’t think my wife and kids would hold me hostage but if I explain it right to them it might prove how much I’ve lived them over many years

      I am an evangelical  I am also transgender.  This is an issue. I have read up on it.  I am not an expert, but I have done a lot of reading.   One thing I do not get about people who take that position is that evangelicals are all about salvation by faith alone by Christ alone by grace alone - unless you are transgender.  Then you cannot be saved, these say, unless you do the work of un-transgendering yourself.  Which is, practically, impossible.  I have read the "solutions" and I don't buy them, obviously, because they do not work.    In evangelicalism salvation is by faith alone, Christ alone, grace alone, without any merit of our own.  That means, to an evangelical, we come to Christ as we are,  in the words of a glorious hymn,   1 Just as I am, without one plea, but that thy blood was shed for me, and that thou bidd'st me come to thee, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   2 Just as I am, and waiting not to rid my soul of one dark blot, to thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   3 Just as I am, though tossed about with many a conflict, many a doubt, fightings and fears within, without, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   4 Just as I am, thou wilt receive, wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; because thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   We do not clean ourselves up BEFORE we come to Christ.  We let Him clean us up AFTER we come to Him.    Those who insist that transgender people cannot be saved are actually preaching another Gospel, a Gospel of works, and have wandered away from the glorious Gospel into works.  That is strong but true.   Struggling with legalism and grace, I have found more of God's mercy and grace available to me because I struggle with being transgender and seeking His resolution of it.  Which, not having the struggle, I would not have needed to seek Him earnestly on this.

      Eventually, (especially if you start T,) things will even out. The excitement you feel is from everything being so new. Finally knowing yourself and having others recognise you can be thrilling. However, because it is your natural state of being, eventually that wears off. There's nothing exciting about it anymore because it's "just you." (Which is a perfect thing to be!) This, however, can lead to disappointment. Trust me when I say however, that that disappointment and jarring reaction to wrong pronouns will go away, and you'll once again feel comfortable in yourself.

      I love long hair. I'm wanting my hair to touch the floor. I guess we shall see how long it can get.

      I wear a wig most of the time.  But I can get by with my natural (shoulder length) hair if I wear a hat or something to cover the mostly empty top. Unfortunately that train has left the station, sigh.

      Oddly enough, just this weekend I read some of my poetry at a local event.  In this case it was a Pride group so I didn't have a particular advantage.  But I have read in more inclusive (of cis people) situations, and been fairly well received.  Let's face it, cis people do deserve an equal chance.   I suppose this might be a problem in the future.
    • Ivy
      Of course we do.  The few friends I do have are almost exclusively cis or trans women. I think I could have a relationship with a man, but he would be kinda "other" to me.  Could be interesting though. I never have understood guys - even when I was trying to be one.
