Hello to all, After 30 years ( best I can remember), yesterday I FINALLY took my first step and had my first therapy appointment. All went well even though was scared stepping into the unknown. I think I've found a great therapist with alot of help from my partner ( Thanks Amy) that makes me feel comfortable and even though was in guy mode never seemed to doubt who I really am. Even suggested I come and change in womens room before my next visit to get more comfortable letting the world meet Traci. Got sessions every 2 weeks but also took my Second big step today, and all set up to see an endo in 6 weeks, so looks like I'm going to be around awhile. Hugs

Traci, awesome! I can relate to your initial hesitation - I delayed and stalled for years. And then I realized life is not infinite and I needed to be making better long term decisions, time to take charge of my future. I am so glad for you! And welcome to Susan's.

Wonderful Traci! Talking about your fears and hopes face to face is the best type of therapy.
I'm so glad you joined us. We can fill in the voids in between sessions!
