Went to Psychotherapy

[Glenda58]

I went for grief counseling today. Still having a rough time with the passing of my wife. The first half was letting me feel the pain of missing her. Then we talk about me being trans. And my therapist tells me she is trans and is going to help with referrals to her doctor. Told me to embrace Glenda. That I looked good and that I should not have a fear of going out. So I spend the day as Glenda.

Went to my heart doctor and changed everything to Glenda. The were talking about me saying SHE needed a stress test and after SHE should be able to get the Meds SHE needs to transition.

After I came home and changed into short shorts and a racerback tank top with A bra shelf. And took my puppy for a walk in the park.

I'm feeling sky high right now

Wow. Sounds like your day made a major turn around. Glad you were able to finish on a good vibe.

My question is do you want that?

You're seeing the counselor for grieving over the passing of your wife, NOT because you want to transiftion.

Are you falling down a rabbit hole that isn't going to fix the underlying problem?

I think those are the things you need to decide before moving forward. Otherwise you may come to regret this path.

I'm 76 This isn't the first wife that I lost I know time will make it better. But like I said I'm 76 and I have been wanting to transition for years. It's now or never.

Glenda, one of the girls we hang with regularly spent the last year surgerically getting breasts and a bit of facial work done. She's about your age.

I can tell u that she went thru a lot of expense and suffering! But, she's so darn happy now. Quite different that she was before. Always a big grin and a, "Howdy, how r u?", now!:battingeyelashes:

Glenda, go for it girl! Be yourself and be happy. Every bit of positivity in life helps. Use your happiness in things to help cope with the sadness in others. Wishing you the very best!

Glenda, I'm glad you are getting the support you need for both your loss and finding your true self.

Glenda that?s wonderful you?ve met a counselor to help you with transformation I wanted to go on hormones myself but doctors won?t allow me to as I had open heart surgery last April and said medicine would make my blood pressure go up so no dice for me. Very happy you?ll be able to get started on that chapter of your life. Good luck
