I havent been on this site in a very long time. I stopped living full time about 2 years ago and find im more depressed than ever. I definetly regret lossing all the friendships i had. I am just reaching out for help to see if anything comes back. I am still taking my estrodean and wouldnt ever stop but social im male again. I am pretty much in the same situation i was before i started hrt. I just feel real alone and sad. I was going to post this in the depression forum but figured it was more a real life test because of the choices i made. I have complety disconnected from all my female friends that knew me as joanna. I tryed to find a therapist but that is a process in itself finding the right person.

Hi and welcome back Joanna,

Under our resources tab on Laura's main page, you canfind a listing of gender therapists under transition resources. I just checked and there were quite a few located in Connecticut.

I myself have been living part-time since December, and became full time in May when I at last came out at work (the only place I wasn't out). When part time, I just hated having to be him at work and would get depressed from it. I'm  pretty sure I could never go back at this point.

 

Hugs,

Marcie

Hello and welcome back!  I'm sure you had your reasons two years ago but it seems like you've decided to start anew.  Social transition can be hard so don't let it get you down.  

We are in the process of reviewing our resources list.  I'm sorry you find it to be out of date.  If you google this link and input your location you'll find a number of active therapists.

Sorry i didn't say more in my first post.  I was called away.  It must certainly be difficult to go back.  I can only imagine not just what bit must do tom you but your loved ones.  I have been living as female for some time now.  Interestingly i've found that i can be quite masculine at times even as a woman.  I have grown to know and enjoy cis women who are quite similar.  They also do things that society sees as masculine.  The difficulty for me is in accepting the fact that i'll always be a bit of a mix and won't ever really "fit".  I'm not the perfect husband or father.  I'm just me.  I slowly am growing to accept that.  Being here has helped.  I'm not alone and neither are you.

 

Hugs,

I'm sorry to hear about how rough things got for you :( I don't have much experience with your exact situation, but if you ever need a friend/someone to talk to, I certainly can be such a person :D

      So, yesterday's epiphany was that girl jeans fit me much nicer than boy jeans. Well, duh! So this girl is switching over to wearing girl jeans pretty much full time. I'll keep my others for work jeans. We went out to dinner last evening and I was in androgynous mode...wearing a pair of Bandolino Amy straight leg denim pants. Score!

      Good morning, everyone!! The coffee upload has started for me but just in the early stages so I'm barely coherent at this point.   You've been missed @Willow - I hope all is going well with your wife and at work.   @awkward-yet-sweet We love to make beans with rice - one of our favorite meals.   No big plans for me today. Small projects around our place and probably some reading. We're going to have some rain off and on, and the temps are still too low for a lot of outdoor work.   Be safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!

      Thanks, @VickySGVfor some truth. Hatred may speak loudly in a political agenda, but there is always love, there is always love.

      Doesn't this belong over in the Humor Topic??  Grim humor I admit, but it has the dark humor picture of the folks protesting the Sacramento Sanctuary Laws.  If the world is going to end next week why are these people so concerned about someone staying fertile and able to have children??   Crazy.
    • VickySGV
      Once again the opposition is telling scary, unfounded  baloney about what IS being done to any Trans Person.  The truth about the very little and very cautious treatments just will not sink into them because it will sink them.  They bully their own Cis children unmercifully to fit into their molds, and that is gruesome in itself. I am happy to say I know that Trans children and all Trans folks in the area have access to wonderful care based on what some of my former State colleagues who have Trans family members and fellow employees there in Sacramento keep telling me about.

A ballot initiative is going to go absolutely nowhere. They're wasting their time.   Carolyn Marie

      good for you dear. my guess is soreness is good sign things are going on there. water them n hope. smiles   actually was speaking to someone other day n they said the growth leveled off after a few years  which coincided with a few years of very high stress..n then when the high stress resolved, she grew another cup size..
    • missyjo
      darling I completely agree. but it will need road testing I'd think.    and I recently asked a surgeon about an idea I had for easier recovery...do a zero depth 1st..recover then add a canal..he said NO. this surgery is hard enough on body to recover, do not do it any more than needed. also said penile inversion usually is sufficient n includes a few centimeters of perineum tissue anyway..so keep the perineum pull through as a reserve technique in case there is a problem with theb penile inversion.    hugs to any who want them

      I can't tell from the article if being trans was part of the motivation for the crime, or whether it was simply incidental to it. Clearly at least one of the perpetrators was known to the victim, which seems to continue the pattern that the most dangerous people for us are often people we know.  😒
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Beans, beans, the musical fruit...   But beans and rice make a complete protein, and a pretty cheap base for any sort of meal. Since two of my partners are Hispanic and one is Asian, we use a lot of rice. Plenty of beans too, although 90% of the time they are on the form of black-eyed peas. That crop grows really well in the South no matter how hot and dry it gets.  And the Native American trio of corn, beans, and squash is a classic.  Actually, those ingredients tend to show clearly whether kids were raised with a healthy diet or not. Kids raised eating those foods luke them. Kids raised without experiencing those foods tend to reject them immediately. Rather strange.

      I feel a little better about going outside. I got my EpiPen just in case of an emergency. Today was rough started euphoric and then depression hit real hard and I don't even know what it was about. It just happened. I want to see a bright future but it turns dim because of something. I was disappointed on how much supplemental insurance was more than regular health insurance. I enjoy seeing other successful people making it as a couple through everything in fact I cheer them on but it just makes me think if I will find anyone. I barely dated anyone when I was physically fit male and then it seems the older I get it gets harder. Not to mention everyone down here leaves as soon as they find out I'm trans. It's only going to get more difficult because of borderline personality disorder. It's dang near seems impossible that people would even put up with that. After all that I'm still trying to be positive and hope for the best but I always expect the worst and that has always been the case. Pushing 40 and I haven't even experienced true love.
