Title: Wow that was easy
Post by: Jace on April 28, 2015, 12:55:48 PM
I finally started T! It was actually pretty easy once I get my letter from my therapist. I just had to make an appointment and showed up. They gave me my first shot there, I'll be doing one a week, and will be showing me how to self-inject next time.  I dropped off my prescription to the pharmacy as well. I'm just surprised at how smooth it at all went and I'm just very happy to finally be starting.

My voice is already lower? It might just because I'm a little sick but even if my throat is clear and I feel fine it's definitely a bit lower.

I am really proud of you!

I was supposed to start T yesterday but backed out at the last minute in the doc's office because I'm still dealing with tremendous guilt over how my transition will utterly humiliate my family.

But I'm REALLY REALLY proud of you for taking the step. That's a pretty big deal, brother!

I'm sorry dude. My family is taking it pretty hard and I kind of a chose a terrible time to come out and start as my brother is dealing with a lot of depression and alcoholism, but at the same time they're just happy that I'm happy.

Also I'm pretty sure my voice did drop some as I can hit some lower notes singing than before.

Jace, Hugs. I hope the situation in regards to your brother improves. It's never easy dealing with our own issues by themselves when starting out and then having other family problems tossed on top. It's wonderful they are happy that you are. Hugs
