I started dressing in my teenage years but wasn't until my late 30's started the dressing and guilt trip that comes with each event. I tried talking to my wife of a previous marriage back then went to therpy, purged tons of great clothes over and over again only to find that I would want to dress for a period of time only to stop and purge again. I bet I've read and talked to everyone that could help me and about the age of 45ish I finally relialized that I would have to accept this dressing as part of my life or I would go crazy. I now have a wear at home somewhat policy dress a little and always underneat, go out dressed one or twice a month, drive dressed go out with other Cd's and really just accepted it as part of my life. COULD I just continue to purge and guess what my choices were? I THINK so but when the time came I have learned to enjoy dressing publicly and with other as part of my life. Some people know some people don't I do know that accepting it has made my life easier to deal with it. My wife has accepted this part of me as long as people in my community don't get to see me but overall its made my life better as a person and though there are times I'd like to dress 24/7 I know that thats not part of my life and I can get on with my life enjoying being a woman on some days and being a man the rest of the time. I guess hat I'm trying to say in this long about way; Learn to accept what you can and Just get along with your life "IT'S NOT GOING AWAY Jenn
