Title: Some hopefully good news
Post by: Kade1985 on November 25, 2013, 05:34:45 PM
Well because I have been incredibly depressed and dysphoric lately... I've finally started taking some action. I have spoken with a woman who runs the Diversity Center in my college who has set me up with a plan of action towards a better direction..

First of all nothing is set in stone just yet... But she is going to look into government housing for me since I am a full time unemployed college student... And I have my first real.. transgender related doctor's appointment next week to get evaluated. So I'm hoping these lead to better places soon.

These things alone have made me feel a bit better. Lets just hope it goes in the right direction from here.. I need these things to happen

The best way to have change in your life is to be the engine of that change... it sounds like you're doing it!

Congratulations on setting the groundwork to moving forward.

Thank you.. I'm a bit nervous and excited to be honest. At the very least it's given me a bit of hope which is something I've lacked in the past few weeks.

The more I think about it the more I hope it works out the way I'm hoping. Of all things I'm excited for it's a beard. Oddest thing to be excited over but darnit I want facial hair!
