Heya TicTac:  that is terrific news...  wow, having support from your mom really means a lot.  Yes, kind and supporting words from her would certainly help to get you out of your depression.
I found the only picture of yourself that you posted on your very first posting on March 27... I think that you look very nice....  I am not into Goth... but black does look good on you.   From time to time on appropriate threads please feel free to keep us posted with your updates and even a picture occasionally would be nice.

... also that is terrific news about the hot chocolate and cookies.....   hmmm, now I am envious of that... I will have to go next door to the coffee shop and get a treat to bring back to my office... perhaps an espresso and some chocolate chip cookies......

Thanks for posting and always feel very free to post your updates and anything else on your mind related to your transition journey.
Wishing you well.......
Danielle

Thank you for the compliment! People in real life tend to have a negative reaction to my look because they think I am a devil worshiper or something, so compliments are nice. I never realized how judgmental people can be until I started wearing more...preferable clothing.

Sure I would love to post more but I need to get more clothing first, as the outfit in that picture is all I have. Well, I actually have a pair of skinny jeans and a shirt but that is literally it. I gave away all my male cloths, so I am not left with much lol.

Yeah, cookies and hot chocolate are awesome! I wish I could consume endless amounts without consequence! I love the stuff really.

Thank you for the kind words!  :)

I've had a few things happen this week that have put me on a high.  The first is getting rid of my hoodies and shopping for short jackets.  I went to a bunch of malls tons of stores, only the ladies dept, and I interacted with sales people and customers.  Even though I'm not passable I unapologetictly shopped only in the ladies sections and had a great time all day.

The next thing that made me happy is that one of the jackets I bought received a lot of compliments at work and outside.

I'm getting a lot of compliments on my new style with the hat.  At group the therapist gave me a big hug, which surprised me.  Am I more huggable? i hope so.

I'm feeling very at ease with myself.  I didn't realize it till others commented.  I am happy with the road I am on.

My phone has been slowly dying.  It requires to be charged 4 times a day now, or just leave plugged in.  Well today, the replacement I wanted finally is available to order, Yay.  Ordered, it comes in Friday.

And lastly, and this one makes me silly happy.  I still collect videogames.  Yes, I am still 14 at heart.  One game has been difficult for me to get, and I've been searching for years.  The company that made it decided to sell their overstock today with a note that quantities were extremely limited.  At 7 am when they went on sale, I had my order in, Yay!  At 7:01 they were sold out.

All told this is a good week.

you know how far the universe extends outward? i think i go inside just as deep.

10/11/18 - out to the whole world.  100% friends and family support.
11/6/17 - came out to sister, best day of my life
9/5/17 - formal diagnosis and stopping DIY in favor if prescribed HRT
6/18/17 - decided to stop fighting the trans beast, back on DIY.
Too many ups and downs, DIY, purges of self inbetween dates.
Age 10 - suppression and denial began
Age 8 - knew I was different

@ TicTac: Might I suggest that when you post pictures of yourself you don't always need to be in new or special clothing... sometimes just seeing someone post a regular everyday picture of themselves in just a T-shirt and jeans is nice to see...  perhaps showing hair styles, makeup or none of that and just the real you and discussing your current events makes a good posting and picture for us to see regarding your transition journey.
Just a thought............

Danielle

In the toy section at Wal-Mart with my grandson yesterday and this kid about 3 or 4 years old starts telling us about the toys he had in his hand.  Cool, cute so I said something like that to him.  Before he goes back to his parents he tells me that I talk like a man. 

Took me a bit to put it together but for him to say I talked like a man he must have thought that I didn't look like one.

I suppose I can share regular picture updates, but they will all have me wearing the same clothing for a bit, but like you said that is not the point. So sure, I will totally share a picture when appropriate! I have been learning to like myself more so I am not bothered by sharing pictures anymore.

Thank you for the reply!  :)

Well, seeing my therapist made me happy today. She is a transgender therapist and she is the one who sets up all of my appointments for surgeries and stuff. Anyways, she runs a transgender group, and I have decided that I want to join it. For the first time I am doing something against my social anxiety's will, and it feel great honestly but also terrifying. Maybe I can actually make a friend for once in my life.

Having my wife encourage me to tell my story to two dear friends and mentors.  They were amazing.   Lots of hugs and tears. 

Feeling some love

Finding a free game that turns out to actually be pretty fun? Awesome. Finding out there's a nonbinary character in it? Epic.

Dear gorgeous @Allison S ... your doctor is quite correct!!!
My Doctor did not say that to me until after about a year of my HRT........  I think that they were sincere... which of course made me feel terrific.
