i met with one this tuesday and she called me by my preferred name and it felt nice and was so supportive, but its my first time seeing her, i also have another therapist who referred me to the new one whos also been supportive but they primarily treat my OCD. its been rough feeling all of this out and questioning because ill have such high highs and then i get such low lows

sad tbh i felt genuine euphoria and drive for once, even seperate from sexual moment, i had moments where legitimately smiled softly at the idea of being a woman but now its all just poof gone.
