update on my journey.
I went to my GP today and he is going to look into finding me a GIC to refer me to he said he though there was one in north wales which is not too far away, on another topic i asked did anyone know what i was to expect but had no replies, (i started to think no one wanted to talk to me anymore because its been a bit quiet on the conversation front, only kidding), it was easier than i thought and the GP didnt look as shocked as i thought he would, big weight lifted now i've took the first small step and got to go back next week to see what he has been able to do for me. He seemed really helpful so i'm absolutly chuffed and just needed to tell someone.   :) :) :) :) :)

I saw your other topic, but being from the States I could not answer you.  Hopefully some of the girls there will.

Hi Vrony
I have just been reading this thread and wanted to say welcome to Susans.
We are at similar stages in this journey.  I had my first psych session on Wednesday and it went great.  He is very experienced with gender issues and I immediately felt comfortable talking to him.
I came out for the first time only 2 weeks ago to an acquaintance (now a friend :)) but i am no where near ready to came out to my SO and kids.
I would also encourage you to speak to your work colleague.  You could potentially be great support for each other and for me it was liberating speaking to someone face to face.
Good luck on your journey.

hi Kate and Shelly, thanks for support, nice to hear from you both i was just on my way to bed and just thought i'd drop in for a second, its been quiet in my inbox LOL i was really nervous when i went in to see the doctor today but relieved when i came out of there. I cant wait to see what he says next week, he has sent me to get a blood test tommorow but thats to do with my colestoral which was too high a couple of years ago and i've had to fast since 8.00 tonight and im really hungry. I think he sent me to have an excuse for me to go back next week i think but i couldnt believe how relaxed he was about it. What was funny was when i went in the first thing i said to him was i am going to ask you something that you probably have never heared ever in this surgery and the look on his face sort of confirmed it, it sort of broke the ice. Lets see what he can do, i hope i'm not going on too much but i'm just very excited.
Everyone will get fed up with me in the end i bet
I'm off to bed now because i cant stand the hunger anymore so the quicker i get alseep the quicker i can have my blood test and have a big breakfast mmmmmmmm i'll catch up tomorow

Hi Shelly,
just a quick note following on from last night, its nice to hear from someone who is at the same early stage in their journey because most of the girls on this site are way ahead of us, it will be nice to keep eachother updated on where we are and how we are doing. As you said you are no where near being able to come out to the kids etc and i'm the same but it is becoming difficult to concentrate on everyday life knowing what i am doing and keeping secrets, if you want you can PM anytime and we can keep each other sane on our journey.

Its been a couple of days since i last added anything to this topic because i havnt been able to move, my SO has been on the laptop and i couldnt think of a good enough excuse to pinch it off her.
I'm not sure if anyone will look at this but i feel i need to talk to someone about how my journey is going. I feel it helps me because of the position i'm in i have no one to talk to about what i'm going through (ups and downs).
My second appointment with my GP is tommorow and i will find out what he will be able to do for me, i'm feeling quite nervous about the whole thing and i dont know what i will do if he says theres nothing he can do. I keep telling myself theres no way on earth he can say that but i've always been a bit of a petamistic type of person, i normally believe it when it happens and then if it goes well then its a bonus, but this is something different, its the first day of the rest of my life.
Anyway i will keep this topic updated tommorow when i've been the doctors, it'll be like my diary Ha
Vrony  :) :)
