A little update.... my transgender life
So, it's been a very long gap since my last journal entry but I thought it might be a good idea to write something down just so I could look back in the future to see how far I've come. I'm not exactly sure how accurate my memory will be but will try my best to cover the last few years ( Read more... ) -
The Follow up Doctors Appointment (my poor bladder), and Hormone Prescription sorted!
I went to the Doctor's appointment this morning after going to the Job Centre. To my relief the GP I saw, who appears to be a locum, told me that sometimes urine samples come back clear even when you have an infection. So, it seems that it's still likely all I have is just a Urinary Infection. She told me to get the prescription for antibiotics ( Read more... ) -
Christmas, Gendered Gifts and Cards, GPs, NHS Prescriptions, Being ill, and Wow It's 2009!
I have decided to write my first journal entry of 2009 this evening. I have had a bit of writers block since over the Christmas holidays but have sat down to try write. I had a relaxed Christmas and it allowed me to almost forget things that are on my mind. It was so nice to see my sister again and I realise how much I miss her when she is Swansea ( Read more... ) -
A Long Long Long Update.
With a little reluctance but with a desire not to forget what happened in the past week or so I have decided to write a journal entry. The past few weeks have been difficult though there were some positives. I went to see Monkey: Journey to the West in London, saw the BBC Good food exhibition and went to a gig by Duffy. I'm shamelessly going to ( Read more... ) -
Inner Transphobia? School Days and More Thought Dissection
Dear Diary, I was just checking my News Feed on Facebook when I came across a school friend had posted a photo album of a small school reunion on his Facebook. I took a look to see what everyone looked like and as I went through the pictures I felt something quite profound. I imagined a scenario where I had been there and shuddered. I looked at ( Read more... ) -
Letting Off A Little Steam...
Ok, so I wanted to write something down before I forget it. What I find quite often in my life is that when I'm outside the confines of my private space or home life the way I see myself is different to when I am in my own private space or home. It's like outside I see male and female sexes only, with my eyes.
I automatically feel I want some ( Read more... ) -
My Mom's Coat...
Something lifted my mood today and made me smile. I was talking about coats and jackets with my mom and she was saying how one of her fleeces was too long for her. I had told her before that I bet it would fit me. Then today I said that I would try it out to see whether it would fit me. She was reluctant saying that it wouldn't, but when I put it ( Read more... ) -
My Difficult Day
Well, today has been a little icky. I'm wondering whether it's because I've been having several light nights lately and had a restless night on Sunday. The icky feeling started fine until I watched the Armistice Day at the Cenotaph on the television. I've not needed to cry for some time now but had to at this point. I was very emotional watching ( Read more... ) -
Je déteste le pantalon masculin
I'm a little bit frustrated this evening as I decided to look for some new trousers. I went into the store and couldn't really find any that really jumped out at me (not literally of course, that would be scary). I found two pairs, one light brown and one blue and decided to take them to the fitting room to try them on. I always try clothes on ( Read more... )
