Well, I am in "wait" mode, waiting for wednesday, when I will hopefully hear back from my counsilor's and maybe, just maybe, be able to fast track my transition. I need a back-up plan in case this doesnt work, so I dont get devestated and just give up hope. Still noodling that idea. meanwhile, I am slowly but surely starting to work on my next piece, but it might take a while. Ah, well.

Truth Time.

Fast track your transition eh?

How old are you?

Are you a Veteran; any major stressors in your life?

Why would you fast track it? You just got your hair cut to please your family.

I don't know of a single shrink that will let you speed things up.

How long have you been dressing?

How long have you been in counseling?

Are you on Medications for a Mental Illness?

So, you've been here about a year, when did you know that you wanted to be a girl?

Have you ever been accused of being Gay?

Has anyone ever said that you were effiminate?

Is there any evidence that your body is Intersexed?

So far, my impression is that you are dealing with a lot of Trauma not associated with being GID. One of the things that knotched my T'ness ahead was that I was severly injured and could no longer do the "Manly" things that kept my self doubt about myself at bay.

I decided to do the SRS in 2004, but it took until 2007 to actually get it done.

Somehow, I had deluded myself that my Family would adapt to the new me. They haven't and aren't going to. Don't kid yourself, those who have a good relationship with their family afterward are the exception.

Please forgive me for sounding like a hard ass. This fucking road to womanhood is a killer, and I don't want anyone starting down it without counting the cost.

Much Peace

You don't need to provide me with a single answer but I hope that you provide yourself with them and honest ones.
