Started the Ball Rollin

    I've well & truly set things in motion now cos i went for my Appt today and i got on very well. Told my cousellor about wantin to start on HRT, and that i was seeking advice about it. She said that it would be one of two things i'd have to do to get started....and one of them i'm doin already by livin F/T(almost 18 months now). She did say there's a very good chance that i'll get the go-ahead to start on them. What Rachel( counsellor) has or will be doing is writing on my behalf, to a psychotherapist she knows  explaining the situation about me.The next thing is i'll either hear from rachel again, or the psych she's referring me to....a Dr Olive or oliver at the mental health place in lowestoft. I would then have an appt to see him/her i suppose just so they can see that i'm more than capable/ready & understand what's involved. Now it may take several appointments for them to decide, but it's like i said to rachel....if i have to wait say a month or two then so be it. If i'm gonna do this then i am going to do it properly, no self medicating for this girl i can tell ya. So all in all, i'm very pleased with the way things went today & rachel seems very confident too but only time will tell. Now it's very much a waiting game, waitin for that letter to drop through the letterbox telling me when my Appt with Dr olive/oliver is.like the title says.." started the ball rolling"...i most certainly have cos it feels as though a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders......so here goes!
