@amberwaves Dear Amber.... I appreciate seeing your update, and no worries, updates don't always have to be extremely exciting and they do not always need to be good news. I always like to hear from my red-headed friend on the forums.
Heya girl, life happens, the good and the bad.... and not only is it good therapy for you to write about it and vent, but also your followers want to know so we can keep you in our thoughts, offer support when it may be needed, and as always we will have an ear to listen and a shoulder to lean or to cry on. When you report good news we then can rejoice with you.
At 27 months your HRT has usually done a lot of it's most dramatic work, but rest assured that there is more to come, so hang on, the ride continues.
Regarding sexual function, mine stopped working at about 6 months of HRT... but not problem, women don't have that same form of function anyway but just tickle my nips and I am yours. LOL
Regarding jobs, stay employed and take whatever you can temporarily at least. An unemployed person is a lot less attractive to a future employer than a job candidate that presently has a job. Keep being tenacious and persistent even on job applications that you have done previously... keep beating the drum so that you will be heard.... keep following up on your applications.
Your marriage, you and I have talked at length about this subject that is dear to your heart.... as you are aware, the spouse of a transitioner naturally can have a very difficult time with all of this... obviously an extremely emotional battle for them... continue to be kind and loving as much as possible in your specific situation.
Ahhh, your house, obviously this is a big deal, keep talking to your bank.... silence about your difficulties in paying the mortgage is not viewed upon kindly..... keep talking to them and telling them about your desire to get back on track and the various things that you are doing to make that happen...
...most banks will want to help you, be sure to ask!
You mentioned that life is static... well that is better than going from bad to worse...!!!!
Thanks for checking in and giving us your 2 1/4 year update. Please continue to feel free to PM me at any time about any thing. I will be there for you.
Hugs,
Danielle
