Though I might share this
After weeks of doom gloom & more doom I've, managed slowly to get my are of of my head & except that I am trans, so I've mange several LBGT meeting where I have met some wonderful human beings & make one or new friendly on the way.
One new friend MTF I got invited around to there home, so I went armed with 101 questions, the out come her wife has told me she what's to give me a full make over & commented that I look more femme than most cis  woman my body shape is good my face, hair but I still feel I don't, is this the dysphoria! Also so was meant to start HRT in a few weeks but yet again another cock up on the results ( thank you NHS ).
But on the good side I,m started to live a little more as Sara taking each day at a time & if I don't look like a beauty Queen then so be it, so no rant this time just a few words. Sara

Hmmmm.... An avatar with bats now eh?... Still seems a little dark Sara but, it is better than the previous one so I will let you slide this time sister!!!! :)

Besides!!!... In China they are considered a blessing so we will go with that interpretation!!!...

Bats. ... The Chinese symbols, or characters, for "bat" (蝠fú) are the homonyms of "fortune" (福fú) or "blessings." People tended to paint five bats in paintings to symbolize the "Five Blessings," health, long life, prosperity, love of virtue, and a tranquil, natural death.Apr 13, 2014

Hugs and Much Love!!!

  Sara,

  Sorry I didn't see this until now. You should know by now how I feel about your post. I've told you so many time to go talk to someone, anyone. To quit feeling sorry for yourself and get out there and do something to get help. Haven't I?
And once again you have and with more good results. This is just the kind of help and support you need girl. Don't stop now. I understand times are going to be rough for you and you are going to want to slide back into your old pattern. DON"T you dare do it Sara don't you dare. Just keep looking for help and you will get what you need.
  I really like the tone of you post. Keep it up.

Loves ya Sara

Hugs,

Sara girl you are beautiful!!  I'm not just talking about looks - you are doing beautiful things.

I wish for you to be happy.  If you were happier the other way I would wish for you to be that way instead, but clearly that isn't the case.  Be patient and be good.  Enjoy who you are.

Sara Dear, You are your own worst enemy. You go get a little help by finding and talking with other during which hope springs eternal in you. Then you go and let something get you down and you are off on the brink of destruction.

  NEVER EVER GIVE UP HOPE!

Don't do this to yourself Sara, please. When whatever it is that threatens to bring you down comes to calls fight back by getting out of your own head and go tell someone how you are feeling and what is bothering you. Get help girl. Be proactive in your own happiness and seek out others that can kelp you. Doing it IRL will help you more  than we can online but ,Honey, we are always here for you. So if you need to talk by all means come talk. PM me if that will help you more. You know I will answer you as soon as I see it is you.
