My resolution is to keep progressing with my outward appearance and attempts to blend in the the general population as best as possible and to try harder at creating friendships.

my signature =)




I came out to all my facebook last night.  Changed name, profile picture, gender  and wrote a message. It went incredibly well

that's great

Three letters HRT
Lol my therapy begins on the 28th of december, shes even going to adjust the books to take advantage of my limited benefits ($500 yearly) so ill score a few bonus sessions next year on this years benefits!

For now im doing the herbal thing placebo or not its making me feel better until i get in for real HRT.

My resolution is to fully come out to my family and friends. Hopefully it goes well. My mom is kind of a wild card.... Not sure if she will accept it or flip out. Irregardless I'm going to move forward and finally be me.

I've only made one New Years resolution that I've ever kept...and that was to make no more New Years resolutions. All has been well ever since! But I do use the new year to reevaluate things in general and just try to "be better".

Thinking back to the 2012-13 new year...I had no idea then that my long repressed dysphoria would explode a mere six weeks later leading me to where I am now.

I just want to be at least a little bit happy. My self esteem is so cripplingly low that it's ruining my life.

And folks, don't forget that you don't have to manifest your resolution by yourself, get all the help and support you need if necessary...there's a much better chance of success that way.

I don't want to make it a resolution, because I don't want the pressure and guilt if I am not able to keep it.  But my goal for 2016 is to come out to my wife. 

Find a therapist.  Maybe go on HRT.

I want to get rid of my facial hair.  That's really starting to bother me lately.  I just wish it wasn't so expensive.

that's  why I use the words trying instead of doing, atleast by trying I'm accomplishing some and moving towards it.

never been real big on resolutions but this years I'm going to have a " try to work on " list....

try to get started on electro on the face hair, try to start low dose hrt, continue my therapy that has been so positive an experience and try and make this all work with a well paying job that I will lose if I transition and a job that keeps me away from home over 250 days a year on average. I think it''s going to take some creative juggling but one day and one step at a time to a happy real me !

2016 will be the year that my partner gets herself all surgically fixed... and that we get married. (Although in reality that has pretty much already occurred - she moved in last week and is now a regular visitor around the medical school).

You may have noticed we have both been posting less and less. This may even be our last ever post on this forum, but honestly would you have time to post much with someone so adorable around? I love her so much - thank you Susans for bringing us together. So Happy Christmas to all and a prosperous new year. Farewell in 2016 friends and I hope it brings you all a step closer to your dreams.

With much Love Jenny & Susan

I did the same thing Grace. I am kinda breaking it this year because I've promised myself to be more aggressive about meeting my own needs rather than deferring to the needs of others. However, since I made that promise at the beginning of December, perhaps it doesn't count.

And, by the wat, Jenny, Susan, you look adorable!

i am nomally not one to resolve to do anything but with this last year and the hope i have for the new year, its slightly easier than before.

I'd love to come out to my  dad. He's a tough cookie and ive  been anguishing over how that will go, but I know I will need to do it soon. Be a happier person, hrt helps a great deal with that one. Love and be kind to others more... you just never know what they are dealing with

Oh yeah, lose some weight... right after all the Christmas sweets I'm cutting myself off!!

Merry Christmas girls!!
