Crossdressers block!!!

[PrettySatinNightgown]

I've had a very strange week!! Infact, a week like no other. Until today I had'nt worn a dress, top, gown, anything. Infact I have'nt even worn my nightgowns, in which I regulerly wear when I go to bed. Today though was my day off work so I went over to mums while she was at work and tried some of my ball gowns (I store them at mums). I spent half hour over there just swishing and dancing around, but the thrill was'nt there. Is there such a thing as crossdressers block? I'm 33, I admit I do go through phases like this, then all of a sudden I go a whole 2 months when I wear womens clothes everyday, I'm confused.

You know like they say...

You can't have too much of a good thing.

No...

Too much of anything is too much...

Wait...

If two good things are as much to have as a great thing, then too much is too good?

I dunno but sometimes we just don't feel like doing what we do.
It's natural and perfectly normal.

I have always run in up and down cycles. I don't know what send me up or down, just that it happens. I don't worry about it. The enjoyment always returns.

Caution: do not purge in a down time....it just gets expensive to replace all your pretty things (which you will do, eventually.)

I know exactly what you mean. I don't know what it is but the switch in my head just switched to the OFF position recently and I have no interest in CD stuff at all.

But I suppose it will come back.

I refer to these on and off periods as my CD cycle. In the early days, my CD desires would be very intense, but for only short periods, a few times a year. The last 5 years or so, it stays with me for most of the year except deminishes somewhat in the summer. I have this on going conflict about shaving my legs in the summer, and this might have something to do with it also. I have also noticed that the intensity and interests really ramps up in November, and December. I have also found that I don't always feel like going to the trouble of getting all dressed up and going out during these down periods, but I do anyway. I feel so good for the next few days after being Linda. Last summer I lost interest in my CDing for almost 4 months !! I thought Linda was gone, but she came back with a vengence, with many new adventures !!! :) I don't worry about it so much anymore. Just go with the flow.

I get the same thing. Sometimes I dress every day and then just don't want to for over a week sometimes :confused: . I don't know why this is but then one day I'll wake up and just have a big urge to dress.
The biggest urge to dress is when I've just been paid and there are soo many clothes to buy. :)

[Julie York]

Linda-x, you have pretty much said the exact thing that happens to me. November is when it starts and then I usually buy something outragious for myself at Christmas. But I am going on hols soon and let my legs get hairy and....with the best will in the world...hairy legs and a mini skirt is a god-awful thing and really spoils the fun. So I've sort of gone off the whole thing.

It's amazing how fickle the brain is. Maybe it is something to do with hours of daylight.

But when Summer is over.....who knows.

I experience that to some extent. In fact, I'm not even 100% sure that, for me, this crossdressing is a need like it is with most people here. So, if I were to lose interest long enough for my leg hair to grow back, what I would do is, not destroy my clothes, but bury them. Put them in a coffin and bury them six feet underground. Keep a little "treasure map" handy in case my desire comes back. If it does, I can follow my map, unbury the clothes, wash them and get back in business.

Sometimes when I get a prime opportunity - say, half a day home alone - I would dress up, but that thrill sometimes isn't there. Some of my best times have been when it was somewhat dangerous in terms of getting caught, and when I stayed up really late since it was the only time I could.
