    Having dressing WITHDRAWALS!!!!! BAD!!!!

    I haven't been able to dress since last Tuesday and I've had the urge like never before over the past week. The worst of it is that I won't be able to dress until next Tuesday and it's killing me. The good news is that I got a new pair of shoes today and I ordered several new outfits so I can't wait to get them.

    How do you deal with time away from dressing?

    Nonsense! Replace dressing with gardening or a social commitment? Isn't that a bit like a band aid on a broken leg?

    Gina, I find the only cure for the dressing urge is; DRESSING! The other nite it was very late and I couldn't sleep thinking about something for Halloween I wanted to try on. My teen daughter was in the house, sleeping? I latched my bedroom door and tried it on. Dropped rite off to sleep after!

    Funny thing. Once I gave myself permission to dress whenever I want to, I don't want to nearly as often!
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    Days? I usually have bad withdraws but its usually like a month or 2 up to 3 of not dressing. I had a breakdown last time I couldn't dress. It literally was like 6 months. I was depressed "alot"...but i'm feeling better now. trying to dress once a week.. seems to keep me balanced.. but sometimes life is a little more important. home repairs.. children,, etc..

    In a drought over here too due to family obligations. And for me the full moon makes the urge even stronger.

    Oh well as Clint once said mans gotta know his limitations.

    I get that withdrawal thing too when. And thats even when I do get to where some undergarments. I just keep trying to find other things to pass the time, and shopping is always a good answer for that... no... no it's not... not at all... ...I'm going shopping! lol
    If i knew then what i know now, i would have stolen my ex wife's clothes. I loved the way she dress

    My wife and I are leaving tomorrow morning for a week long vacation. My wife said "You can't bring your boobs." Well, I already figured that although if I had a wig and she was on board, it might have been a chance to go out where nobody would recognize either of us (a festival in a big city).

    I'll be wearing my Ahh Bra and panties but otherwise male the entire time. I'll miss my boobs and I'll miss the dressing time, but it's a vacation, a time to have fun even if it's "other fun".

    I pretty much have to be sick and stay home alone to be able to dress.. talk about depressing.. i am alone today tho and that make me feel a million time better already. I can narrow it down to 5-6x a years so let me tell you.. most of you are not too bad if its only a week until you can be you again dressed.

    I think we all know what dressing withdrawl feels like and different time spans affect people differently. However I have a very full life and dressing is just part of it. I always have on panties and often pantyhose and a cami under my shirt that works just fine for in between times. Since I always have plenty of other things to do I just get busy and it passes. When I do have a day to myself and set aside for dressing it feels even better.
    Somtimes the light's all shining on me, Other times I can barely see.
    Lately it's occured to me.....What a long strange trip it has been.

    Last fall we invited my mother come and stay while she recovered from cancer surgery. She was here from October until May, and I was unable to go anywhere in femme mode except for the master bedroom.

    I just concentrated on helping her get on her feet, and focused on my family. It was really hard for a multitude of reasons, not just because I couldn't dress up and go out.

    Trust me with a full house and maybe getting an hour or so of alone time, I do not get to dress for months(longest was almost a year) at a time. I usually let the hair grow, including my beard and nothing feels better than taking the man off and dressing up. I have learned to appreciate my dress up time and not hate it like I did when I was younger when I would purge everything.

    Since I've been wearing only panties for the last 7 years I'm never "away". Most of my non-work clothing is female anyway so for me it's just a matter of hair and makeup and I'm done.
    When I was still in the closet I tried to occupy my time with other activities to keep from getting tense and anxious to dress. If I went for too long it made me irritable and agitated and others noticed but didn't know what the cause was. It was a struggle so I can certainly sympathize.
    I don't wear women's clothes, I wear MY clothes !

    I too can't dress anytime I want. My SO does not know and would not welcome me being a CD. I know it's not the best of situations, but that's life. I have my time alone when I work from home and can dress for most of the day like I did today in my new dress and shoes. Felt wonderful. Taking a business trip with all my dresses and plan on dressing as much as possible and going out, a little. I was thinking the mall would be the best place to walk around and window shop.

    Having to wait is a killer, but makes the dressup time that much better when it gets there.
