So I was planning to wait until new years to tell my mom and several others in my family that I am trans and that I have already started HRT, but my mom calls me like a week before christmas. She was going on about how she thinks i'm hiding stuff from her and how it hurts her feelings and such. So I'm finally just ok do you have time to talk, and I came out to her. At first she was just like well I have lots of questions. We talked for a bit and then she says that she doesn't want me to tell anyone else in the family, which is kinda understandable, but then she says it's because of how they will treat her differently. She then says that it's not like she would tell people if I were a drug addict for the same reasons, which I didn't really appreciate the comparison, but I know she was having some trouble adjusting. She says we will talk later and we say goodbye. On christmas day she calls me, says marry chistmas and stuff. Then she says that I shouldn't come around anymore unless I am how they knew me, and that she would not accept me as anything other than that. Then she gives me this "I still love you I just can't accept this" stuff. I guess that could have gone better, but it could of been worse. She could have just hung up and not talked about it, but she would rather bury her head in the sand and pretend it isn't real. I guess what I'm trying to get to in a long round about way, is have any of you had a similar experience, and did your parents eventually come around or should I not expect any change.
