Yeah, I just started the proper stuff with the psychologists. It'll be close to a year before I get hormones, but I'm still young, I can wait. For now....
I've had a few opportunities to tell my old friends about my condition. They're not a close-minded lot, and I've played around a little bit with the idea, but those damned new guys keep bursting in. Expect for our sauna nights, and they are not the most comfortable environment for.....well, anything.
I'm kinda surprised that your family actually has an escape plan. I was thinking that Britain would be a better option. I really don't see the need to cross an ocean, the Brits are far enough and too tough for Comrade Grey-and-Black Rainbow to try anything.
On a lighter note, you actually have a boyfriend? And he knows, too?
Seriously, that is fantastic.
You'll probably read this tomorrow, so hope you two had picked some good movies.
Seriously, though, I keep writing this stuff for way too long. Better get some sleep tonight. God natt, Rebecka, and you take care as well.

Im pre-hormone and Im actually not even in contact with a psychologist yet (but I have a meeting on monday that hopefully will help me to get in touch with a team of gender-therapists and so on). I've reached 23, so it's not like my body is getting harder to change by the month as it is in the teens, so not in a huge rush, but don't want to wait forever... Im kinda afraid my beard will get worse. Dont have much now but afraid it will become more since that oftenly keeps developing far into your adult years. But it's good that ur taking ur time, one should not rush things... self-medication for example can turn out so bad if it goes wrong... thats why Im taking my sweet time as well
About ur friends: are there any social context/scene you guys hang out where it's just the old gang? cause that might be an idea? didn't understand what you wrote about the sauna thing, but I interperated it as the sauna not being a proper place for discussions like that.
Well, our plan is just in case, it's not like I have booked a ticet and so on... But the thing is, that if they will go beserk and start invading other countries (more then they have) we have to remember that the fascist movements are growing stronger all over europe, so fact is that they are not the only reason to leave. But, as I said, it's not like we've booked a ticet and looked into those things very much but we have had a discussion about it where my mother told me that if things gets to that she don't want me to stay and wait for things to get worse. And if I should leave I would want to go "far enough" to feel safe.. But I dont know, might go somewhere else but Canada seems pretty ok when it comes to politics (even tho my Canadian friends have told me that it was better like 15-20y back).
Yes, I have an amazing boyfriend, we've been a couple for two years and are determined to make that number higher into infinity haha!
Yeah, he knows, we've talked a lot about it. Thing is that he is not just my bf but one of my best friends (tho we were not friends before dating) so we kind of talk about everything. He's very supportive and just wants me to be happy. He's more about person then gender, although he does prefer men, but he's a bit fluid when it comes to these things.
The movie night went fine, we saw "The fault in our stars". I cried like a baby... very sweet lovestory (sucker for romantic dramas..).
Going to bed now, talk to you later!
