Sorry I haven't been on and posted in a long time.. I've been busy with school and girlfriend and band and all sorts of stuff :p

So, I'm gonna do my best to try and stay within the rules of the forum in explaining this... But if I do mess up and don't realize it, please please please tell me so I can fix it :D

But okay anyway, I'm getting my T letter! It was kind of a pain considering some "number" issues. But basically the doctors office called back and I have to go to a psychiatrist first, but only one time. My therapist is going to send over some information regarding my GID stuff, then I meet up with the psych so that she can sign off on some stuff for Endo! Like, this is really a big deal just considering those said "number" issues. So next week, I go to psych at 11 in the morning, lunch, then ortho doc at 1 (aha yay for being at the hospital all day! ;p).

But basically if everything goes as planned, I will be on T within the next few months! And I'm getting my name legally changed soon too!

Part of me is really terrified, like, I'm excited of course. But its all happening so fast... I mean, I haven't even graduated yet and I'm changing my name and starting T soon and like... I don't know, its weird. But exciting!

Did anyone else feel like this when everything started rolling? Like, terrified but ecstatic at the same time?

It never fails to impress me how many hurdles some guys are forced to jump thru. That said sounds like you might be done jumping for awhile and great to see you getting there!

Thanks guys! It means a lot to me to hear these things from y'all!

UPDATE:

I saw the psychiatrist today and she seemed more than happy to pass information along to endo!! So soon they'll be calling to set up an appointment and things will move forward! Words can't explain the excitement right now!  :eusa_dance: :icon_boogy: :icon_dance: :icon_geekdance: :icon_joy: :icon_mrhappy:
