When Was the Last Time You Felt This Way?

Yes, that is a wonderful depiction of what transition has felt like to me too!

When Was the Last Time You Felt This Way?

Maybe after I was laid off from my last job  

I could imagine if I fully transitioned I would feel that way, but won't know if I never try.

That's a great picture, and really captures the experience, doesn't it?

I recently felt this way again when my sex life, after a fallow period lasting several years, suddenly came back to life.    I mean, I was completely surprised by this turn of events, and completely rejuvenated, too.

I felt it most strongly last Thanksgiving. The day I came out of the closet and started living as a woman full time.
Since then that feeling has accompanied me like a fellow traveler sometimes subtly, sometimes more strongly, but always there, as I continue to experience so many new firsts and become more comfortable in my public/social gender presentation.

It's so good to know other women are feeling the same thing.  It's important for me to remember. When things get difficult. And as a counter argument that not all of us hold the view that "nobody would ever want to be trans."

I recently felt this way again when my sex life came back to life.

Hooray Sophia!!!. I'm so happy for you.

Hooray Sophia!!!. I'm so happy for you.

Not as happy as I am! 

I am now officially a cougar.

I love this image so much - I think I'm still stuck on stage two, unfortunately!

You'll get there. It took me 57 years!

Yes that's more or less where I am too. Most of my friends know about me and part of my family too but I have to hide at work ATM. Makes for an interesting rollercoaster.

Besides that, even though I am not usually sirred and I seem to mostly pass, it's all within our heads and I don't really feel I pass or my voice is acceptable. Looks that myself is keeping me from progressing in that regard.
