Sep. 15th, 2004 09:40 pm'my beautiful daughter or my beautiful son, it doesn't matter.'
so, finally, i came out to my mother about being transgendered, although i didn't use that term.
i said that maybe i should start seeing a therapist again because i've been getting panic attacks a lot lately, then i mentioned that a therapist would be useful because i have gender ..things.
she said it would be good to talk it out, but i told her that it wasn't something that would go away.
in short, she suspected it, read up on it (she scares me sometimes), and is completely supportive. she's calling the therapist tomorrow, and said that she doesn't want someone who will try to change me, or make this thing go away. she's willing to do whatever it takes so that i'm happy in my own skin.
wow.
