New T-Girl in Transition

[tonywaits]

One thing I might suggest is that you can go to work in a trans friendly bar as a bartender or performer and make some good money. That could help you through school and with some medical expenses. Depending on how big the town is you live in you could perform at a more than one local trans friendly bar and make a decent amount of money. Our performers make as little as $50 plus tips a night to $250 plus tips. It all depends on the crowd you draw.

Hope this helps

Hey there Dani, just picked up on the thread and would like to wish you luck! No doubt it will be a bit of a daunting journey and will take alot of courage but you will get there in the end

Thanks Royal and Tony! I am sure there are plenty of friendly bars in my area since I live in Orlando!

John, I agreed with your suggestion and went ahead and switched therapists to someone who came highly recommended by a fellow trans at the local GLBT center! Hope things go smoother with him.

Hey all,

Things have gone really well and I am happier then ever even though the past couple of weeks haven't been gold...

I informed a few of my very close friends of my feelings and who I am. For some it went really well and others haven't talked to me since and one in particular had some very harsh and nasty words for me...not surprising but a few who were proud and supportive and helpful were definitely a surprise!!!

This is all really thanks to my new Therapist who has been beyond helpful! His name is Dr. Baker-Hargrove and he caters to the Trans community.

I am still very nervous about talking with my parents and for transferring to a new university. This is all very new to me but I am loving every minite of it but I realize that it is not all sunshine and butterflies and have had a few run-ins with nasty people.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Dani

Hi there.

Now you understand why i did the reality checks.

And i am glad my advice paid off, with the therapist.

And good luck with your transitionning and your studies.


But we don't hear from you very often...

Sincerely, JohnDowe.
