 ;D i know most of you ladies are far passed this event but my psychologist encouraged me to come dressed . after much thought i went for it. after being hide for all these years, i put on my makeup ,my favorite skirt, heals and sweater walked right into the waiting room and sat down. i'll tell you i was shaking like a leaf in a huricane :o but you should have seen his face when he walked out. instead of the normal hand shake he gave me a big hug and we went back to his office. he said from the top down i was very attractive. i know you may say he just said that just for me but i know him and he wouldn't just say any thing for any reason. i believe yesterday was the happist day of my life so far. it really help the way i feel about myself 100%. i think i'm ready for the world! i consider this a life changing event. how was it for you? did this event really carry on to bigger things?

I can only imagine how nervewracking that must have been for you, honey. I would hope I have that same courage... *big hug* I'm sure you are very attractive, and it was a big milestone that you witnessed.

Hearty congratulations, Alyssa. You deserve it. :)

Right on, Alyssa.

My therapist never told me to.  I had seen him at couple of times in male drag.  Then one day I said to myself, 'Damn Girl, it is time for in for penny in for a pound".  So like you I did my makeup,  favorite outfit, nylons and heels.  And when he opened the door, it was damn girl you look good, hugs and all smiles all around.  And I have never been back in male mode, again.  In fact on September 13, i was never in male mode again.  And I don't even own anything male.  ;D

Feels good, doesn't it Alyssa. I think I showed up in femme on my second visit which I guess set the stage and showed her just how determined I was to transition. I just sort of jumped in with both feet and other than the hiccups and pain in the process, never looked back. Well, thats not entirely true lol, I have looked back a couple times and it scared me worse than going forward. Hugs Hon and you just hang in there and keep your eyes on the road too.
