  She's really pushing for me to move home to St. Louis.

Would that be good for you?

honestly, it probably would.  It wouldn't be easy though.

Easier than transitioning I bet! You would have great support it seems.

Sounds perfectly normal. She just wants her daughter at home.

at least from her and a few others.  There's some that are surely going to be negative, but my mom said to hell with what they think!  Kinda nice to hear her say that.

We need to talk not text. Just call me when you get the opportunity. I can tell you this. You are making all kinds of excuses to keep the status quo and that isn't healthy. You have to take care of yourself.

You are hurting yourself. That's what you should consider. Loss is part of life.

There will always be some excuse you will find to avoid the truth.

I think you hate yourself more than anything else. You shouldn't though because it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Some of the texts my mom sent.  Left my stuff out.   

I'm glad you told someone you can trust.  That's an important step.  And she sounds very supporting which is great.   I know you were worried about stuff, but at least things are going in a positive direction.

However, please remember that transitioning must come from within.  Don't let anyone influence your decision even if they are supportive.  You have to make sure the risks are worth taking.

That's awesome to hear that it went so well! Maybe I should try drinking one time in my ife LOL... This gives me hope for this weekend when I will more than likely will be sitting down with my mom to talk to her... I hope it ends up going this well...
