today was my 5th therapy session.

it's been almost 2 months since i started seeing a therapist and she has been more than helpful. she really makes me sit down and think which is what i need.

about a week ago i really sort of solidified what i want out of life, where i want to be in 10 years and how i want others to see me. i came out to two friends of mine i plan to come out to one more soon.

things have begun to click. i think.
my therapist told me things would one day. and now i get why some people can't particularly answer the how did you know you were trans question. i had no idea and now here i am. everything in between is just this gross mess of confusion.

i think things started to sort of topple into place once i came to terms with my sexuality. that i like girls, but i just didn't see it as i am a lesbian. it feels natural for me to like girls, like who else would i like, i guess. im not saying being a lesbian is unnatural but there is a difference i think. i don't know, i feel more like  a straight male than a lesbian. and once i came to terms with that things sort of just lined up. better. im still questioning things but it just feels less like a grey cloud of nonsense and doubt.

she mentioned today if i wanted to get on T i would be able to do so in january. that's so close.
i know i want to be a man but the hormones thing seems so immense. i don't know. i feel like, damn this is all happening. so fast too. ill get to be a man. the one i envision in my future. im surrounded with so much support, and im so lucky for that. i have the ideal set up for all of this and i couldn't be happier.

so things are looking better, im both excited and scared and thrilled and hesitant about what my future has in store. but hey that's life.

Ok ready, breathe, again and again.

Glad things are starting to come together in your mind. Yes it is a long process and will take some time to get through it all. Trust me i been looking for 40 some years and harder these last 14 years for the answer to the why. Its not there and i learned to stop thinking of it being i am trying to find a answer to something that had not a real question.

Lots of luck in your path, keep looking totaly inward to the answers of your future. You need to find the things that make you the happiest. It will come in time.

Mindis quiet now@

I dont think its a thing of why. I know why. Its just the whole change. As a whole.

I say i know why because i have been terrified of my own body for so long, and now theres an answer for me to feel better in my own skin that would be fantastic.

But these changes are so permanent and they happen in such a relatively short time frame compared to the rest of your life. I think that is what scares me most. Not even what others have to say on it just the idea that my body is going to change around.

Just remember even though it seems things are coming fast you can take the time and slow them down. I found this whole thing is not a race. It took me little over 13 years from starting Hrt till getting my GRS done. I took things as i needed to keep myself happy.
