Saturday: 1. Prepared my thoughts for the upcoming election 2. Came up with an idea for a new writing piece 3. Pizza Sunday: 1. dealt with centrelink painlessly enough 2. Made pretty much the exact right amount of pasta 3. Friend reminded me about their birthday subtly enough that he would have had no idea I forgot it + was immediately able to prepare 4. Speaking to boyf on the phone. I miss him. Sunday: 1. Did some important cleaning 2. Ate one of my fave things 3. Read a book, which I haven't done in a while. 4. Two party invites for the same weekend but on different days, so can actually go! ... View more

Tuesday: 1. How happy my dog was 2. most of the time I felt alright in my outfit 3. Being with boyf was just v nice and it's nice that he's able to be relaxed during exam time 4. Tried new food. Wednesday: 1. I showed up to thing even when I wasn't sure of it 2. I was assigned a role, and tried to contribute before then, that made/makes me feel like I have some worth there. 3. Easy parking. And while I wasn't 100% on whether I was meant to park where I did, everything seemed to work out. 4. Driving somewhere new, and doing fine with it. I confronted a road that I had in my head as one I didn't like, and I made a wrong turn later only to not stress at all about it. 5. Returning a call (twice) with minimal hesitation. Thursday: 1. Hung with my housies for a little while before they head off. 2. Completed some work I said I'd do before the due time/date. The person seemed happy with it, and I'm happy with it. 3. Came up with a nice list/calendar of ideas. Friday: 1. Calmed myself down this morning regarding an email I was too stressed to look at, to the point where I was actually able to look at it. (And it was an almost perfect result from the email!) 2. Turned my day around, from feeling bad in bed to being quite productive. 3. As above, I was productive today in the form of completing thing I was assigned on Wednesday, and researching a holiday. 4. A friend of mine just moved, and it sounds like he has bits of hope in regards to his life getting better due to where he moved to. 5. Got a little bit of money. ... View more

I think that sort of question would be perfectly appropriate @BunnyWalks. It's always okay to ask what someone needs from you, so asking if they want to speak to someone, or to you if you're comfortable with that, or asking if they'd like help finding some help is perfectly okay. ... View more

@FootyFan26 Awesome!! I'm proud of myself for going to volunteer yesterday when I didn't really feel like it. For driving somewhere new, and parking. And for not freaking out when I missed a turn. And I'm proud of myself for the way I've argued in a discussion today. I'm not going to convince the other person because we're coming from two too different places, but I made my case well, I think. ... View more

Monday: 1. I spent a lot of time with my dad. He seemed to enjoy it. 2. Speaking to my sister, and finding out about what's going on in her life. 3. My dad bought me a book (easily the highlight of highlights) 4. Pushed through to see a second movie today, and the second one turned out to be really enjoyable. ... View more

Because I can only remember as far back as Wednesday: Wednesday: 1. I've never seen so many people celebrating halloween, I loved it. 2. Boyf surprised me in being able to come to trivia. 3. While we lost somewhat terribly, trivia was still fun. It was nice seeing those friends in a different context to usual. 4. Kinda made a decision on our holiday. + One of my friends sent me her friend's itinerary of her recent trip to where we're going. Thursday: 1. Invited to a party that I'm hoping won't clash with another party. 2. Desserts with one of my besties. 3. She picked me up. And I did offer to drive myself to her. 4. Messaged a friend. Friday: 1. I drove somewhere new. And managed to park okay! (after fixing up my park) 2. Managed to return a call from Wednesday. 3. Cheap eats considering I was eating out of the house with people. 4. I wasn't so sure about meeting up with the people I did, but it went okay. 5. Milligrams has adorable animal paper clips. Saturday: 1. Boyf and his family saved me a bit of cheesecake 2. Playing games (Littlebigplanet and Draw This) with Boyf 3. My preference of boyf's two best friends was the one joining us for his birthday dinner. 4. There was a nice moment where the three of us were walking, and there was a lot of laughter. Enough laughter that our interlocked group was broken. Was nice. 5. Invited to a conference for free in January. Sunday: 1. Drove straight into a park 2. Made dinner rather than ordered food 3. I spilt my drinking chocolate, which wasn't great, but then the cleaning up turned out to be so easy that it made me feel kind of positive about cleaning. 4. Playing Draw This with boyf. 5. Plans to see my dad tomorrow. ... View more

Hi @sindi, I'm going to second the organisation Tom-RO mentioned, Q-Life. Along with that, if you're not already in touch with an LGBTI+ community around you, they could be a really great place of support for you to get involved with. That is assuming, of course, that there is one in your area. If you're around a major capital city there should be something. It is a really tough journey, and it's hard to be strong throughout it. I'm guessing this was true before the surgery too though. You mention that you think you should have waited a little longer, but I want to ask you whether that would have really been a better option? You're happy with you right now, and so if you hadn't done it already you'd be wanting to do it. This is who you are, and that's okay. This is who you want to be, and that's okay. You're not alone in this, and if you can get in touch with an LGBTI+ service or community, you'll feel that a lot more. And we'll be here too. ... View more

Hey @Elle8 I'm wondering whether you have any thoughts on why it is you feel isolated. I'm currently in a somewhat similar position. I have a great who I'm often with, my family is more involved in my life than ever, and I have some really lovely friends (both distant and close) who make it clear that I can speak to them whenever about whatever, but still I'll feel isolated at times. So I'm trying to figure these sorts of things out for myself too. You mentioned there being a space between you and yourself. Have you tried any mindfulness, meditation, or journalling type of self discovery activities? Also, just letting you know that we're an anonymous forum. As such I've edited out your name in your last post :) ... View more
