Hello...
I have my first appointment on Tuesday at Nottingham GIC... I've booked a hostel as it's cheaper to stay overnight than go on peak from my city (the joys of Virgin East Coast pre-booking!) and I'll be heading over in the morning.
I have the following:
- Letters from work and university confirming my name change
- Tax refund and bank letters confirming I have changed things
- A timeline of coming out to friends, work, uni ect
- Some things I remembered from childhood feeling wrong in my body
- Smart clothes to wear/stuff to smell nice.
Is there anything else I need to bring? Any tips on what to expect?
P.S. I'm FtM... I have a bipolar 2 diagnosis, but I manage it pretty well and I am very self-aware of it. I don't really drink, smoke nor use other drugs. Not sure what else to mention.
Congratulations :)
hugs
