So I just recently finnished writing my mother this long letter about my gender dysphoria and how I'm trans and I just sent her the email a moment or so ago but she probably won't read it till sometime tomorrow because she's asleep. Theirs a voice inside of my head screaming at me that I should care that she could possibly kick me out of the house or disown me as her kid but I'm really not that freaked about it I didn't send her that letter just to get a rise out of her and say "just kidding". I did it so she would know the truth and that this would stop eating me up inside like a parasite and I could start feeling happy again. Has anyone else felt this way when they came out to a parent?
In a way, I'm a little jealous of you because I still haven't told my parents that I'm female yet & it feels both really horrible not telling them & really safe for me being able to not have them know, especially since I had to move back in with them both. I have spent every day trying to have the conversation in my head, trying to imagine what I'll say & what they'll say. I feel totally the same about how I feel inside, but I think that this is normal. I think you're really brave for coming out & I'm sending big hugs your way right now!
