Hi
Sorry if this gets to be long. But today is one of the biggest day of my new life. Like most of you, I have always felt that i was in the wrong body. Living a lie. I have been in denial for many years, scared that i might lose everything (family, job, and friends). So the past year has been really hard and depressed. So two month ago, I decided it was time. So i found a therapist that specializes in trans related issues. I found one and she  has been great. Someback ground, I have a good job. I have a my own house. My mom pasted away nine yeara ago. My dad went thru bad depression and lost everything. He also has bad heath. So he lives with me.
Before my mom pasted away, she found my stash. She confronted me about. She was more confused than anything. I was more ashamed and scared. I played off as not a big deal.
I guess before she pasted away. She told my dad. She didnt know all the details. But she warned him. Some day something may happen. ( I may be gay, Crossdresser, transgender) be prepared
Which brings me to the present. I have been wanting tell him. So i can slowly start to transition.
Everytime I get they nerve to have the talk. He is not here. Its been hard on me for two weeks. I haven't slept on eaten. i have been so scared. So I wrote thw letter, also download some information guides. I left them for him.  It was better than I Could have ever hoped for. He told me it will be hard to see me change. But your mom already warned me. That i have always knowen, something was wrong. But I love you and will always be here for you. He just asked that I make sure i see a good therapist and workmwith people that have experience with these issues. I finally feel relief, that can move on to the next step in my life. Thanks for listening
