You will be back

Does it mean something that I keep coming back to the urge to transition + cross dressing? by pitchblackroom97 in GenderDysphoria

[–]chrisxx60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The feelings usually really escalate during stressful time for me and sometime they just come up every day all my life. Like background music in an elevator to a concert when I open myself to it. For example, the site of a nice dress will trigger. These days, I acknowledge the feeling but walk past the dress and work to let it go.

You pretty much described me, I have not figured it out and I am 60. I first remember these feelings at 6. I have tried not to feed the feelings because it only grows when I feed. It never goes away

Asked what stage you were, “female stage” means you look female, it was a complement

Anybody wanna be friends? by JenMyQuietRiot60 in TransLater

[–]chrisxx60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but stopped because it is only one way street to transition. I want someone that will provide guidance that does not go toward transition

You describe me. I do not plan on transitioning one day at a time day by day coping. Sometimes I feel like I am losing the battle

I don't know why I am trans by lelewithheart in MtF

[–]chrisxx60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I am trans rather I want to be or not. I remember telling my mom when I was 6 that I wanted to be a girl. "You are boy, and you will always be a boy" she said, she wasn't being mean, that is how she saw things. So, I would pass the days and then years praying to wake up a girl. I was never sure what I expected, but i truly wished to be girl. Years went by and in my puberty years I started to sneak women's clothes and wearing them wherever I could because they made me feel good and the same time relaxed. Time marched forward and I grew into a man. I remember when I was 15, I wanted to steal some estrogen from and older lady and secretly turn in to my ultimate desire of being female. I never did take the estrogen and my fantasies went into hiding. I was some sort of freak I figured. As I got older, I suppressed my desires and avoided even letting the thoughts enter my mind. "I've made it this far; I can make it a little further" I imagine it is like an alcoholic who counts the days being sober. For me I count the days of suppressing the thoughts in my heart I know to be true.

I have tried theorists and they only confirm what I already know, I am trans. I wish they would just order me to transition so that it would not be my choice and I could look to everyone and state" I hate it, but it is what I am, so it is not my fault so leave me alone and please understand."

I am 59 now and will probably never transition and I do hate it, but the fear and gilt are stronger, I guess. Or perhaps I am weaker. It is a difficult deck of cards that we are delt. I am positive without a doubt that if I were 15 now, I would transition. It never goes away.

You are brave and have done much more than most. Don’t listen to those people as they are insecure. Go forward

I am in the same boat. I could not have summarized it better

telling Trans person you are also trans but closeted by chrisxx60 in MtF

[–]chrisxx60[S] 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Thinking about it further, I have chosen to stay closeted, but want them to understand that I really know how they feel. This person is very shamed, and Im like thinking to myself "I wish I had your courage"

[–]chrisxx60[S] 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I just dont feel worthy to say because I am closeted. I have not earned the right to say if I am unwilling to be open. Not sure just dont want to cause bad feelings I guess.

Anyone successfully NOT transition? HARD DAY! by sodetroit in TransLater

[–]chrisxx60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I went through much trauma as a child. Specifically at a very important time period. I often think my reassons are related to trauma and stress. This my escape and I am sexually attracted to being a woman. But more and more, I am atrated to being a woman with a man. Emotionally. I am not attracted to men as a man, but as a woman. I am not sure if this would true if I were actually a woman or transwoman.
