Couldn't do it and re-trying

    Last week I decided to come out to my mom, at least, that I am trans. I honestly didn't get the time alone I needed with her to tell her. I had time to tell my step father, but I feel like I owe it to my mom to tell her first. I feel completely defeated. I wish that I would have gotten up early enough to see her and just blurt it out. I am completely disappointed in myself.

    I'm going to try again when I get home from school tomorrow. She will get home before I do and it'll be just the two of us for a couple of hours. I honestly don't think she'll be that shocked, but I'm still scared out of my mind. I feel like I really let myself down. Last Friday I told myself that, come Monday, I will be called "he" at home. I have to do it tomorrow. If I'm called "she", "girl", "lady", etc. one more time I am going to lose it.

    Don't be too hard on yourself, sometimes things don't go exactly as we plan for them to go :slight_smile: Hopefully this time your plan will work out and you can tell her! Good luck :slight_smile:
