Jess baby no need to wait up but how sweet, and I would if I destabilize again.

Joanne, you have been hitting the mark with me over and over again.

I do believe in predestination, and in preincarnate assignments.  I actually believe I am trans and alcoholic in order for my entire survival to be based on my relationship to God, Christ for me.  A huge gamble to bring me back home up there.

I have also seen my kids crack and be mentally hospitalized through a sex stalker, and I know there is only so much the mind can take.  Yet we are well and stronger, and deep undercover from him and safe.  And we recieved  many times over what we lost because of him.

I need to keep rereading this one.  Wife is with me now, she knows I lost it today and am reaching out.

In the moment.  Of all people I should know better than to project.  But I'm human.

So sorry that I am slow to respond. Being separated by half the globe does not help

Have sent PM and VM. Can call anytime.

Be safe we are here for you.

I thought I would bring closure to this, not leave it open ended on the forum here.

Whatever it was, it turned into a major breakthrough in acceptance, reality, a new understanding of a non binary nature which I had been blind to, restoration of peace in marriage, all kinds of new knowledge, and some new friends here on the forum.

It has turned into the best thing that could have happened to me.  It's like someone took the blindfold off.

Remember the movie On a Clear Day You Can See Forever?  The sun is out and the sky sparkles.

It's real, there has been a bunch of very serious therapy around this including an emergency session, with breakthroughs and new understandings and full acceptance of both the male and female components of me.  Or at least, the almost male LOL.  I was mad at that component, I blamed him for everything and wanted to run away from him.  Interesting.

Many thanks to all here.  I believe I am safe, the change feels like the change I felt when I had my last tooth and nail fight with alcohol, and won.  Then the craving left me as I accepted what that was and who I was, an alcoholic.  This time, it was about accepting my true nature, and all that goes with it, and once fully accepted, sanity returned, and I am at peace with being a non binary transsexual.

It is a permanent change.  I no longer fear my physical or mental dysphoria, I can embrace and understand both, my mind and body are integrated, the tension is gone, and I am free to explore wonderland, as a non binary instead of a full mtf transition.  It will be a partial one instead, and totally authentic.

I just wanted to bring closure to the thread.  We all need to see happy endings.  There are enough sad ones.

Denial and self deception kills.   Therapy is so important.

God Bless.  I am hanging out in the non binary section now and feel free to pm me.

I do like being a survivor, like you are.  :)

Thank you for sharing your journey and realisation.  While each of us have a different narrative we are all searching for authenticity and acceptance.  Your journey has been quite simply inspiring.  There are many parallels with my life and I am arriving at a very similar place.  Accepting my non binary nature feels very much like a homecoming, and for the first time in a long time I can look in the mirror and I recognise, love and truly accept myself.

Safe travels

It sounds like your crisis has passed, for which I'm thankful.

And I didn't want to ask this question until the thread had run its course, but I don't understand what "**possible trigger warning***" means. I've seen it on thread titles many times, but these words in this context are meaningless to me.

Can anyone elaborate a bit? Thanks.

SJ, there is not one girl here who does not feel your pain, who does not go thru the same thing too, along with you.  Some can see it coming and somehow, manage to sidestep the full wave, and just feel the gentle rise of the water against their legs, some, are farther out and have to brace themselves as the wave rises above their waist.  Some of us, get lifted up, and carried off the safety of standing on the sandy bar, but we find our footing again as we are deposited back down as the wave continues past.  A few, (and I pray, very few), the waves rises over them, covers them, submerges them hoping to draw a breath that will last til the waves passes.
I pray that you are the last one, that when the waves passes, it carries you with in, into the shallows, where the next wave, merely splashes over your painted toes.  We will be on the beach, with the large warm towel, ready to dry you off.

Wow... Love the images.

The trigger warning is so that those who suffer similarly don't get pushed over the edge by the pain I was going through.  That pain is now completely gone.  I may not fully understand as it is out of context, but I do not wish to unbalance or upset anyone else that is suffering at the same time, I know how close I was to total disaster.  Which now, is a story of hope to tell to others.

I have physical dysphoria triggers I have to be careful of, and fear triggers.  Now disarmed, but I am very aware of what they are.

Aisla know that you have made a big difference, parallel journeys there.  So have those who called me, you know how special you are, and all the rest who carry us through.

This is big stuff, Susans Place.

Love to all.
