This is another thing I was doing without realizing what it was. It’s amazing how much stuff I was completely oblivious to in my own life, and in my own head. Self harm is any activity where you, essentially, hurt yourself on purpose. It can take many forms, ranging from cutting your skin, burning yourself, …
Not sure how much of a breakthrough it was, but I had my first social outing where I felt absolutely normal. Normal isn’t the right word, because I don’t think of myself as normal, but situationally, it was normal. I wasn’t feeling my ‘trans-ness’ at all. I was just me, at a birthday party. A …
I am really missing my paternal Grandmother lately. While I realize she would have had a hard time understanding what I’m going through, and possibly even accepting it, I know she would have accepted me regardless. In my earliest memories, she is almost always there. While my Dad was at work, she was primary care …
So, I’ve probably mentioned that I’m transitioning. I don’t think I’ve really said what that means or entails for me and us (at least not in any detail). Granted, I’m only at the beginning of transition, so a lot of this is conjecture on my part, but based on what I’ve read from others’ journeys. …
Self Centred: Totally preoccupied with one’s own concerns. Irony: Incongruity between what is expected to be and what actually is, or a situation or result showing such incongruity. This is an ironic blog post about being self centred. It has become apparent to me that I’ve been somewhat, if not wholly, self centred the last …
Passing is the ability to present as your authentic gender, without the chance of being misgendered. Even for cisgender people this can sometimes be a challenge. For transgender individuals, it is often a mental necessity to pass. In some areas of the world, it is a vitally important survival tactic. It can become an unhealthy …
Some of you are possibly familiar with admirers and chasers, but most probably aren’t. There are people out there (in my understanding, predominantly male) who have a ‘thing’ for transgender women of varying types. I’m certain there are admirers and chasers for transgender men too, but I have no experience with them, so I’m focusing …
While the vast majority of my personal experience with being transgender and transsexual has been phenomenally positive, there has been some negativity, and it has made an impact. When I first came out to that one lone person at age 26, I was so absolutely terrified of being judged, and being rejected. Then thoughts of …
Never really understood my dysphoria until now. Never was able to view it as I am now. All the things that eat away at me. The things that bring up feelings of hate, anger, profound sadness, unease, dissatisfaction, etc… The biggest trigger of my dysphoria has always been my facial hair, and more directly, the …
Been thinking recently about all the signs I gave myself in my life, to try and clue me in. There really were a lot of them, and I so pig-headedly ignored them all. I guess when you’re trying to come across as a guy, that’s the thing to do, isn’t it? Lol. So, the biggest …
