Question:
Hello Becky, You write, Hi this is my first time here and I have no idea who may read it. I am a biologically born male, diagnosed ten YRS ago as transgendered and since then all those other messy labels. Why do I want to give up sometimes? Can anybody relate and talk to me…I am reaching the black hole! Becky
Glad you wrote. I believe you are more than the sum of your parts and greater than your labels. You are first and foremost a person. I hope you will consider being my friend. I don’t ask you to pledge that at the outset having never met me before but I hope you will stick around ASD at least for a while and get to know some of us. As you get to know me I hope you will consider whether or not I might be someone you would want to be friends with. I know several transgendered people. They are people–usually good, honest, sensitive, creative, gentle people. But they are each one different and unique just as all people are. I have a multiple identity set, have a tendency to dissociate in response to stressors, have memories I wish I didn’t but have gained a lot from working thru them and my sexual orientation is bi. I’ve been given other labels. The information about my self that is useful and helps me understand myself better and contributes to the quality of my life I choose to keep and share with the rest of the world as feels safe to me. The labels which seem to do little to increase the quality of my life I choose not to honor. Other people can choose to look at me thru those lenses if they wish but if they don’t serve my needs I don’t need to keep them. My address should show up at the top of this. Please feel free to write to me any time. Glad you’re here. Hope you come back. alc (Butterfly Puzzle System)

spoilered * * * * * * * * Did u ever think that deling with it for ten years.? They first told me 2 yrs that was all It is so frustrating to still heave the condition and not really having the adquate help. I hope u know what I mean. PTSD so familiar So many people don’t understand why I jump at just about every noise… Why I leave at confrontation….. Why I act different than a few seconds before and also the statement You lied You just said one thing now you r saying another. Having no clue what they meant. This a a dumb question but I am not going to give you the diadnosis so Will ask ok.? Were u diagnosed depression also. That is always an unexpected battle. Can feel self slip at the most smallest thing without knowing why I feel down. I HATE SLEEP every night memories. Every Single d*m night. Oh, the frustation. Not really restin. Just memoreez of t*rt*r*. Hope I shed some light. Hope not too harsh. Maybe shouldn’t said anything. It h*rts so bad. You didn’t make me feel the way I do. I just h*rt alot. Unfortunately my t. said my is lifetime. Don’t want this sh*t anyway but lif*etime. Forgive me. I am sorry. Rest without worry pleeze.
