starting to feel a little bit better lately, slowly telling my friends.
Told my partner about a week ago and have since told 3 or 4 friends as well. they have all been really supportive which is a big bonus.
following having seen a gay and trans support person and being told where my local clinic is i need to be refered to, i have made an appointment to go and see my doctor in 2 weeks. hopefully to get my referal to the clinic.
things are starting to look up :) whoop whoop

Congratulations Savin, it does realease a huge weight from your shoulders to finally start being yourself. It sounds like you are pacing yourself which will be a big help when you finally arrive at your destination. Hugs and best wishes.

One step at a time. Sometimes I look down the road and it gets a little scary. But taking each step is doable. My next step is to tell my sister, and that's scary enough. One step at a time. :)

Good job coming out quickly! It's best to get it over with. I came out to my mother over a year ago and am on the verge of fulltime, and I still have most of my friends to tell. Also, yay for clinic appointment.
