I called a local lawyer and made an appointment for a mediated divorce conference.

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

To hear all the swearwords my daughter uses to describe her mother. Neither of them deserves this situation. :(

I'm terrified. I don't think I need to explain why.
April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

They say the light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train. I say, climb aboard!

I've been procrastinating and lazying about all day today. That's what's getting me down.

Alright, no, the truth is I did do a little bit of work today, doing some research for a potential contracting position. But there wasn't much to do anyway, so I mostly spent my day lying on my couch and fooling around on the internets.

I've left my job a couple of months ago to finish a university course and then have a bit of a holiday, and, well, I'm unemployed for the first time in 6 years and it's doing my head in a bit. I would look for work but there's a chance I might get something new in a few months time and I don't want to start something else just to ditch it as soon as my other (much preferred) option comes up. At the same time, I dont' know if the other option will be open.

It's a bit of a sticky mess. I'm trying to keep myself occupied but it's getting a bit difficult.

Also, need to get out more.

tl;dr: Nothing to do with my time.

I think I'm suffering PTSD from this election. Maybe I'm just terrified and slightly dead inside, but that may be the same

Feeling concerned for a friend, they are a dear friend whom I hold a great deal of respect for

Unfortunately I fear that they are being "sucked in" by someone who I trust about as much as a weasel in a hen house

There isn't really much I can do but be patient and hope she will see through this other person's destructively controlling nature

One can hope anyway, right?

One of my daughters actually told me that she is a TERF and that Germaine Greer is one of her heroes. I know my daughter is a feminist, so I pointed out that Feminist theory has moved on a heck of a lot since the bra-burning, all-men-are-evil stuff of the 1970s (which was essential back then but times have changed!) and there are far better, more modern, more enlightened feminists than Greer to follow; Greer is stuck in a 1970s time warp. As a feminist my daughter should be in support of all women, shouldn't she?

Her response: "Of course I support all women. I just don't support those who are men".

Crikey moses, you'd think after four years of my transition the girl would have a bit more of a clue, wouldn't you? I chalk it up to teenage rebellion & I don't doubt she'll mature in time. But it's bloody painful at the moment. I went through labour to be subjected to this. :'(

Even though any potential damage that could be done as far as the current medical insurance situation goes is a few months away at the most. I am terrified about losing access to my medications. If that happens, I am back to where I was a few years ago. If I get thrown back into this situation, I won't be around to see my next birthday. I can't deal with the idea of going back to that hell again.

Gatekeeper doctors...

I desperately need letters for a court ordered name & gender change so I can get my papers done before the executive orders that enable this without full SRS and a psych board are cancelled.

Naturally the doc doesn't care about this, or the WPATH standards.

And now I'm about to be saved from the terrible burden of medical insurance.

Not a happy girl today.

Damn. Talk about a punch in the gut. You think you can deal with something but when it comes to it, you really can't.

Being told I cannot change my name because the country I have lived in for the last 30 years still considers me temporary resident except of course for the purposes of paying government taxes and fee's and being a good little citizen. Which I can do as long as I want...I can even retire her and collect the pension I just can't change my name.  I now have to become a citizen of this country which is fine if they grant it...if they don't then I am not sure what I can do, if anything, about it...very very distressing thought at the prospect of never ever being able to be recognized as who I am whilst I continue to live in the country I have called home for 30 years...I have one avenue open to me...I am pursuing this now but it could take 6 months or 6 years i just don't know.   :( :(

Next appointment in FEBRUARY :(

One month has passed and I'm still battling against this. A side of me wants to throw some coins to private psychologists.
