Transition Posts

I have avoided writing more directly about my transition here. About time I start sharing how I experience this facet of my life.

Transgender Day of Rememberance

Tonight I went to an event at University of North Florida campus. My frist Transgender Day of Rememberance (TDOR).

Jacksonville Florida has had the most murders in one city this year. Four trans women have been killed here out of the 28 total in the country.

Whenever I would come …

Will I keep this name forever?

I am faced with a government paperwork issue that will be much easier if I change my name legally. Another one of the issues I have been avoiding for my transition. So what should I do about it?

Finding another surge of expression

There is someone new I met at my group a few months ago. We finally started hanging out right before I leave and she did a wonderful thing for me.

She regifted me clothing that did not fit her. I've always struggled with clothing. I hated all forms of expression …

I did my shot "the right way"!

Okay so, last August I fucked up my shot and got scared. From then on I have been bad at giving myself a shot. With the help of my friend over the last two months I was finally able to give myself a shot, alone, the right way, without anxiety or undo stress! Huge deal for me

This is interesting because …

Why must I keep trying?

I have been on the verge of wanting to make more progress in my transition. I am still trapped by so many things. I want to keep moving forward. I want to become stronger.

Every time I get right in front of one of my walls it is always the …

Starting Finasteride

Last night I begun taking Finasteride as my testosterone suppressant. The spironolactone had fucked with me enough that I put my foot down to try something else. While, this chemical is not very effective, it is a stepping stone to trying Lupron. So I will try to track my progress …

Dejection in my transition

I don't think I have written about this nearly as much as I should. Because I have gone off and on my hormone meds many times now I feel I have fucked up my transition to a point and it is very disheartening.

hrt 4 year anniversary

I forgot about it.

This makes me sad.

My perception of hrt has changed from a hopeful uplifting positive thing to a dark torturous painful requirement.

I hate this.

My Transition... so far

I haven't been writing about transition specific things, and I figured I should. So here is an introduction to my transition...
