Path of Transitioning

The road I travel and journey I face.

  Finally, i’ve set aside some time to write another post.  A lot has been going on and I hadn’t had the time or desire to do anything much other than go to work, come home, and sleep.  The stresses of day-to-day life were starting to become too great but things are starting to look up.  After seeing my therapist for a couple of months now, yesterday, she told me she was going to write the recommendation letter for Testosterone!  This giant step forward has me reeling with all sorts of emotions that I didn’t think were possible to feel all at once. 

  Joy that had me almost in tears of happiness.  Anxiety of how to approach my parents with this information.  Hope that everything would turn out alright in the end.  And it will.  One way or another, things will move forward.  Now all that is left is to contact an endocrinologist and make an appointment on that front.  I’ll be continuing to see my therapist once every month or so after starting T to help with the changes that it’ll bring.

  On a side note, I found a nifty little invention for the shorter folk that might want to add a few inches to their height.  Including myself.  They’re called “Super Height Air Cushion 5cm Shoe Lift” made by LOVE BOAT.  From the reviews i’ve seen, they work well and are rather comfortable.  I’ll be ordering a pair soon since I can’t wear my boots at work and the loss of the inches it provides is a bit discouraging.  It wouldn’t hurt to have the extra cushion for my feet as well as my slip on airwalks are thin once broken in.  You can feel just about every bump and nook in the floor when you walk.

  I hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend and Muscle Monday! (I had no muscles to show off. :P)
