That is what I am experiencing right now.....i am doing everything in my power to move in positive directions, and it is completely inspired by the intense fear I feel. A fear of what you ask, change! I will make this time of change positive. And once it is over, this time of change, I WILL be in better shape. Be with me my friends, my family here at susans. I need you now. Thank you

 I have been reading your posts since I joined in Oct,  this is the first post I have written to you, I would like to offer my cheers of encouragement!!!! I wish you the BEST!!!

I recently discovered my father may have lived through one of the worst sieges of WW2, so if he could do that , this should be no big deal. 
There is a quote from a local football coach that I like ."If we keep playing the way we are now we will lose for sure, but if we try something different there is a chance we can win." Go for it girl!

thank you all so much! I really appreciate your words of encouragement.

It's one day at a time and keep reminding yourself that you are a very beautiful young woman. You have fantastic bone structure and present as a fascinating woman.

Take Care

Family is always here for you

Keep going girl!   My fear is also "change" ... that is the fear of not changing.   I fear of not being able totransition.  And then I fear that if I succeed with transition that I won't pass and be accepted.  I fear staying in my present job and losing control because the immature coworkers.  I fear leaving my job and not getting another one that I can transition in.  Basically a fear of living and a fear of dying.    Man,  I can't wait to get to my therapist. 

Sorry, didn't mean to borrow your thread.  Just got carried away.

As my pappy always said- "Do as I say - not as I do"  So hang in there and hope you make it.
