This is really a two part question, the first part is based on some members saying they don't need to dress everyday and can often go days or even weeks before dressing again.
My Cding started at about 8-9 yrs and every single day to the point now in my sixties I have to mentally push the thoughts aside to try and do the normal everyday things, and if I was totally out and accepted would possibly dress everyday.
So my first question is do you have that daily mental struggle or do you have gaps when it comes and goes ? I'm disregarding external triggers that might put the thought there !
The second question is based on that daily struggle.
When you come out about your CDing do you find people don't believe how much you're struggling mentally or do they think you're exaggerating for an excuse to dress ?
I've come to the point now where I can't mentally fight it anymore, my CDing has got to come out !
I posted a thread a while ago about being lazy or something is changing ! That change has got to happen because I'm struggling to function !
At the moment I'm living two lives, one on the forum, where I'm discussing our shared problem, hopefully helping others and having some fun ! I know I'm spending too much time on the forum but the shutdown button means literally that, I enter a real world of isolation through lack of acceptance !
