So my mom came to my house today, I had planned to tell her as some of you already knows.

It was almost like an out of body experience. I almost had no sleep the night before, and when I started talking I could not believe that I was really coming out.

Talking about it was like a revelation, all my doubts about being CD or TS disapeared, like if I had finally found the piece I was missing. It was so clear to me that I'm transexual! How could I be so blind? It was just a repressed feeling.

She handled it extremely well, was very supportive and she even said to me "why didn't you told me before?" :doh:

I explained to her the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity. She was a little confused about me being transgender and a lesbian, so I explained to her. It's a question which confused me for all these years, so I find it rather normal that she had also doubts about that.

She offered to help me in my transition. Told me about a transexual she knows from the hopistal (she's a nurse).

She was like "You're an adult, do whatever you feel it's right for you, be happy".


I've now a kind of bittersweet feeling. I've a clear goal, I know for sure who I am for the first time in my life. But at the same time I know I'm at the first step of my transition, there's so much to be done...

Anyway, I'm really very happy, so much i can't even express it.

I love you all! os quiero a todas chicas! :yahoo:
