Yeah, these scripted bullshit questionnaires are a dual edged thing. They represent an abdication of responsibility, and the usurpation of that responsibility by nameless faceless people.

The words guidelines and policy have gained far too much power in recent times. Guidelines are really railway ...

Thank you very much, Valery. That was the good laugh I really needed.

I think there's a couple of things here.

First is even though I have read you talking about the new standard in various places, it just never occurred to me that what you were saying applied to me. Maybe that's to do with me being on the autism spectrum. Who can know? Anyway, it's a trait that's ...

Hi All,

Last Friday I finally got to meet with the psychologist who's going to be writing my WPATH letter for surgery. At the end of the session, she asked me to talk about something she referred to as my "transition" over the last year. To be honest, I just sort of sat there with this bemused ...

For myself, I think I will be using TRT after the surgery. Unlike a lot of people here, I don't want to loose my libido. I am quite a sensual person, and enjoy it. It just happens that I don't identify as a man. Nor a female for that matter.

For reasons that remain unclear, I don't really see the ...

Hya,

My own take on this is to feel your way, and tread gently. Everyone is an individual, even your brothers and sisters. I'm going through exactly the same sorts of issues myself. However, one thing I realise is that my elder brother and I, even though we lived through very similar experiences ...

I would have to fall into the classification of 'size queen'. But, I also understand what the ancient Greek aesthetic of the male body was about. A man with very small genitals, who is otherwise fit and healthy does look pretty damn fine, if you ask me. The way the abdominal muscles enhance the look ...

Hi,

Indeed, the sense of shame you feel is not unique to you. I think it stems from us being primates, with a very strong sense of societal bonds. However, in our evolutionary path, we've become just barely smart enough to realise others of our kind can think badly of us. (We might be good a tools ...

Firstly, I know that sense of fear. It's dreadful. Immobilising sometimes. I wish I could give you some magic formula or something to use to make it go away, but I can't. What worked for me, and I really mean worked, was saying what I want out loud to another human. The words "I want to stop having ...

Hi there,

What I'm reading tells me that there's a good chance you're experiences parallel my own.

I too have been a 'loner' all my days. It's a very hard thing to put into words. There was always a sort of disconnect, a sense of wrongness, that seemed to infiltrate every relationship except those ...

Tim.

Billy will be fine. Been called worse than that before today.

Hi, Here I am recently castrated. Castration was a recent goal and it was a lifelong goal too. But I never wanted to be alone. I just was never able to find the trick to make holding and loving a happy and real thing in my life. So now, I'm wondering (by no means regretting my new status) if I ...

Dear Billy, Sorry I was a bit late in responding, depression got hold of me in the morning.

Thanks a ton my friend. That's a lot of info to chew in. Yes, I have had multiple visits to the Psychiatrist's. But the mistake I did this far, was that I was more focusing on my mental health like OCD ...

Dear Billy,

I was kindly referred to this thread by Valery_V.

I am based out of Melbourne and under treatment under a few Psychiatrists for my desire for Orchiectomy. When I lost all hope at home, I turned to overseas for my surgery. See my thread http://forums.eunuch.org/showthread.php?31165 ...

Sounds really fantastic, glad to hear things are working out well for you! Seems to be yet another instance similar to mine where going the medical supervision route is turning out to be much easier these days than it used to be.

Indeed, things are really moving along. I saw my ...

Indeed, it is quite an exciting adventure!

It could even serve as the basis for stories in the EA library.

Yes Valery, it's a very exciting time. Finally, after too long I can finally be me.

Hello folks,

Today was my appointment with a new GP. He was my doctor a few years ago.

The upshot-

I now need a referral to a surgeon.

The question is whether my psychologist is qualified to make such a referral. If not, my doctor gave me a list of some who are qualified, and a one session meet ...

Hello all,

If I were superstitious, I would say that now is the time. Everything seems to be almost automatically falling into place. I went to have a talk with my GP, partly about my progress with my counsellor, and also about finding someone who would make a good replacement for him, as he's ...

Hello Folks,

Today has been a very big day so far. My therapist has recommended I now find a GP with the appropriate knowledge to help me along the road to being surgically castrated. As my present GP is retiring, now is a good time to be thinking about it. There's one recommended by the Gender ...

Easy. 31st July, 2021.

Since I was a child I have felt like so many here, that I was well, male-ish, but the genitals were somehow not right. Since I was about 10 years old I have had different ideas about how the dangly bits might be rearranged more to my satisfaction. Then on the above date I ran ...

I certainly relate to that, Billy, profoundly.

when I stated to see that I was an act and an illusion, it was uncomfortably liberating.



I love that expression, uncomfortably liberating. That's exactly it. A place of absolute freedom, but without anything to hold on to either.

Is spite of ...

All did.

The survey did feel as though there were some assumptions being made though.

Even so, thorough.

Sounds like great progress - dumping the old baggage is the first step towards making room for getting a new collection ;) Now you get to decide if you want the basic backpack or something more on the line of a Gucci designer set....

Good luck in figuring out your next steps on the journey ...

It's also something ... If you're free and happy. Good luck, good luck to you.



Thanks, attistoC. You are indeed right. This still gives me an incredible sense of lightness. Just knowing, and truly acknowledging who I am, and importantly, who I am not is making everything so much clearer ...
