Today i went to see the councilor in my college because i wanted to let someone else know about my feeling and thoughts.
I was very nervous at first becuase i did not know what to expect.
I didnt know how to expalin my problem at first because this councilor was a stranger and im a little reluctant to opening up to strangers face to face.

As the appointment continued on i could tell the councilor and open up a bit more. She could see i was struggling though.
The appointment carried on and the councilor would suggest things that i could do to make myself feel more comftable like wear more female clothes and try more make up. (all of which i do anyway)
The fact that someone else was talking to me like this made me really open up, talking about what makeup i wear sometimes to how many relationships with guys have i had.

Near the end of the appointment the councilor said she was going to refer me to a therapist, when she said this i felt happy.

I know i still have a long way to go but one small step at a time, im pleased i built up the courage to see the councilor today because a year ago i wouldnt have done it.

Thanks for reading xx

Congratulations!

Best of luck to you on your upcoming therapist visit. 

Thank you x

You are very brave. It was all I could do to open up to my wife. She has been wonderful but I cannot open up to a stranger. Good for you! You are doing what so many of us dream about.

Chris

Thanks Chris, its nice that you have a good wife who is like that.

But i thank one person for being there for me before my appointment, thats my ex girlfriend who is my because it wasnt going to work out. I told her about myself before i saw the councilor. After i just rushed into her and hugged her tightly and she did back, she gave me that last bit of confidence that i needed so i thank her

I also thank everyone who comments on here, keep posting i like hearing from other people and their experances.

Adam (or Hannah, i wish i named my login that now, my preferd name and name when i have finaly transitioned in a few years or so)

The first steps are often the hardest.  Now everything should be easy, right?

I'm glad for you that you've started on the path to take control of your life.
