Title: HRT Soon!
Post by: Arch on December 25, 2008, 01:48:12 AM
I just had to share this with y'all. It looks like I'll be starting T early in February. My therapist and I both feel that I'm ready, and I've talked to my partner about it. My next step is to talk to the human resources person at work, right after the new year begins.

I'm excited about starting my physical transition but also nervous as hell.

Yeah, I feel you on that one. It's not that I wasn't sure it was right for me, it's just kind of intimidating to start something like this where you can never go back. But then I just think about what life would be like if I had to stay female for the remainder of it and I remember why it's important to me. Anyway, congrats!  :icon_joy:

Congrats!

Just close your eyes and jump off the cliff!  It's not bad, not bad at all.  In fact, it's really kind of nice, being the correct gender for once.

Thanks for the kind wishes, everybody.

I wish I didn't have so long to wait. Five weeks--it seems like an eternity. Far too long to wait.

I'm afraid I'll change my mind...

Gratz Arch. Glad your partner is supportive too. Now he gets to put up with a few months of "do you think my leg hair is getting darker? Does my voice sound different to you?..."  :laugh:

I keep having dreams about fuzzy legs, only to find that I am looking at HIS fuzzy legs. Well, that's more of a nightmare than a dream...snicker.
