After spending the morning reading some great thoughts from someone and openly admitting things , I had the.best morning mentally in days. Just clear thoughts and able to be without a wiwght on my mind.

Why is it the openly talking about being ts or a woman seems to alliviate thw.burden of thw mind? Does anyone else experience this? I mean its like I can be of course it doesnt last long but its nice. I get the same effect when my SO and I are talking about thw subject in a kidding way.

Always helps to get things out in the open cause you don't have to hide.

I would guess that by talking openly or even thinking honestly (its less common than you might guess), you're experiencing a moment of self-acceptance. And the same goes with talking with your SO, even jokingly, about the subject of your gender identity. Self acceptance feels good and anything you can do to promote that self acceptance will be a step in the right direction!

yes its self acceptance for sure...and its more

its your expression of yourself as yourself (Say that 3x times really fast) that is giving you this feeling...it is a taste of what its like to live authentically

its proof that what you are experiencing is real.

That is why talking to a therapist is so highly recommended

For me it comes from having hidden "me" my whole life in shame so you feel a release from shame when you admit it to someone else.

I found shame and fear of punishment to be brutal to overcome.

I will always see "normal" people as dangerous to me, but now I understand why.

Not that this is something that u or many here will understand or relate to, Steph, but:

I had thots of becoming a woman for 10 years. After a got my female suit 5 years ago, I now appear to BE a female in my mirror. Shortly after that 1st appearance, thots of becoming female stopped!

Once I knew who I really was, I came out to a few chosen people from different parts of my life. I was on HRT then and had plans to embark on RLE shortly, and I had completely lost my dread of being "caught." In fact, I welcomed it, and despite now being in a state of suspended transition, I draw great comfort from knowing there are a few people who understand what I'm experiencing and send me good thoughts. Although I long to live true, I'm at peace with myself.
