so i went to the doctor the other day, came out to her, her response was 'is it because you dont want to get married and have kids?'  i told her that i would love to get married, but not  how i am now, im not sure she really believed me but she told me that she would write a letter to a therapist so i could arrange an appointment. Then she said i would have to wait at least 3 months for this :(

i live on an island thats 9 miles by 5, its really small and the told me that there were no gender therapists over here, which i kinda expected so im gonna have to travel hundreds of miles to london before i get to see anyone who has any experience of GID

it just seems at the moment that getting HRT and starting my transition is like inm chasing an impossible dream

I know how you feel but really it does take time and there is nothing you can do about that. Here is a song a play to myself every day to remind me that although I have to wait there is some one on the other side waiting to come out.

Please IM me any time if you want to talk.

Luv Lucy
