I'm sorry for being everywhere on the board, you can't escape me, sorry. I'm so impressed with what everyone on the board shares about their insights. I don't know where I've encountered such a genuine openness and caring anywhere before. I'm babbling maybe, and that's okay. Everyone who shares here in an honest way absolutely rocks. Big kisses. Big hugs.

I have to agree completely! If not for the support here, I know I'd be much farther behind in all ways with my progress.
The guys are cool, too.

Well done. I agree the guys are cool. I have trouble identifying who's what sex sometimes. There's been a lot of times where someone I've thought was a male turns out to be a female, but strangely enough, not the other way around.

Susan,
I like reading your posts on the board. I'm glad you post in many places!It IS nice to meet people here who are honest and talk openly about stuff. For me, it's easier to talk about certain things here, in the somewhat-anonymity of babble-land. It allows me to 'test run' the authentic self that we were just talking about, at least a little bit! I think it also encourages me to be more open-minded in 'real life.'
I hope you're feeling better today. I know you were very depressed a few days ago. How are you doing?

Thank you so much for asking. I have to take my resume out there today and I just can't unglue myself from my computer. It's my antisocial tendencies coming out, plus I miss the unconditional positive regard my therapy was giving me. It was a huge crash. But honestly, I have to say that I always thought my therapist really didn't like me anyway, so I had to fight for that too, god I think about it now and what a struggle I had! Everything backward, everything. I wanted him to dislike me but I *needed* him to care very much. I think I needed him to separate the female from the person. But the female *is* such a big big part of me, I *love* being a woman. I work to maintain my femininity, I want it, I love it, I want to share it. I don't understand myself, at all at all.
Now you know how I'm doing, and so do I. Shite.
