I feel like I am way too dependent on therapy, like a month'ish ago I totally spaced my appointment and came the next day at the same time all ready to go. Of course the receptionist told me I missed and would have to reschedule, I was so sad and cried the whole way back, scheduled for a week later.. I really was distraught the entire week, geez I need some other venues of support. I have my loving wife but sometimes it's not enough. (hope that doesn't sound harsh) I try to get on here more often but some of the threads show people that are really pretty and beautiful and further along on there transition and i'm still stuck in first. It's kinda a source of tears and dysphoria for me... dunno i'm just ranting :-\

It's very normal Hon. A good therapist is a person we become to trust and to look forward to talking to. We feel relaxed and open with them, it is a relief thingy as well of someone accepting us.
And Honey you are as pretty and as good looking as any girl here you are cute!

I don't know about being too dependent, but I understand being bummed about not being able to see them as much as you need. Right now my therapist's schedule is not syncing very well with my own, and as such, I'm having a hard time getting an appointment. My next isn't for another two weeks, and it's kinda driving me crazy. After years of depression, upon seeing that there may be hope yet, I feel impatient about sorting this out. I'm tired of being in limbo.
