Honestly I'd find someone else, if I could.

If i did find someone else would it mean i have to start over?  Also the one im going to is the nearist and i need to get my mum to take me there.

Not only that, but I don't see how PTSD would negate gender issues.

It doesn't. Or shouldn't.
I've actually used my gender therapist to work through some of that stuff.
You do need to be strong to handle transition, but what does that have to do with crying?.
Being overly tearful can be a hormonal thing. I was like that before T, but am not anymore.
However, I can and do still shed tears...almost exclusively when working through past trauma. It is part of recovering from it.

Have you considered an online therapist?

Thanks for that, i found the site so i saved that to fav, incase things arent going well with the one im with, i thought they ment to help you look forward to things, not get your hopes up then make u down again.

Just got back from the doctor, she said that it doesnt sound like i have ptsd, and it is normal to be emotional it better to let it out then bottle it, and that everyone is different.

That is really great. It sounds like you saw a good doctor.
