So I don't know what is up with my dad, but he keeps sending me these emails where he referrs to me as my old name and with male pronouns. It doesn't bug me to be misgendered in person, because I'm completely aware of how I look, but... This is an email. You can go back and edit this... And you KNOW I'm full time female now with a different first name... I flat out emailed him and told him a few times now, and he keeps telling me he feels like he effed up, and I keep reassuring him that it's nature, not nurture, etc. bla bla bla MY DAD IS ANNOYING.

So anywho, the only person who seems to be completely supportive of me in the family at the moment is my sister... who I really haven't gotten along with for most of my life... She is remembering my birthday all of a sudden, and wants to buy things for her little sister, and she's all excited about it... I'm worried I'm gonna open a package full of hello kitty stuff... Don't get me wrong, Hello Kitty is cute, but I'm turning 29... not 13.

I don't know what's up with me today. I'm feeling a huge mix of depressed, anxiety, aroused, and exhausted. I'm not on HRT, but I'm full time... and i had to post this for some reason...

...rawr.

Hi Alyssa,
What you feel is perfectly fine. It is annoying to keep getting named like that eventhough you have been living full time. Atleast that's what I feel when my family keeps denying that i am still a man, just feminine. And there is nothing wrong with you posting it. I find that sharing is the best way to overcome problems. It is way better than keeping it to yourself.
Anyway you can just focus on your good relationship with your sister. She seems really nice. Oh and hello kitty wouldn't be that bad ;)
Be who you wanna be, do what you wanna do as long as you don't violate others' right
