    just a quick thought well i cross dress as a male and and seriously considering to try and transition into one ( early stages therapist blah blah) do i hate my va ga ga or my brest ?? of course not. I wish they would drop off most days, but im starting to see alot lately that unless seriously depressed or near suicidal you wont be taken seriously!! im not depressed and im far from suicidal. im just not happy and i was brought up that only i am incharge of my happiness and only i can stop or change that, so thats what im trying to do. but my fear is as im not depressed/ suicidal from a therapist/doctor point of view they myt not 'give me permission' or prescription for more of a better word to the treatments that will allow me to transition into what i feel is the true image of my self. just wondering if there are any body out there who like me just got on with it tried to make a life for them selves as the gender they were assigned with at birth doing the every day stuff that 'gender' is stereotyipically supossed to do really quite succesfully, not depressed , not suicidal, just unhappy but when that moment came where enough is enough that whatever specialist you saw took you seriously and help you get to where u are today
