I'm back from a long-awaited 'vacation' aka a stay in the hospital with very positive results. The entire story is a bit too personal to share just like that, at least for now. But let me just say that after almost a decade of deep ups and downs and a lot of waiting, changing and moar waiting, I've finally had my last major surgery on my way from a lady to a gent (well, not that I'm very gentlemannish...but you get the gist of it). I've always felt quite conflicted about being openly trans since I used to be worried about what potential employers would have to say. But then again, would I want to work for folks that consider this a problem? Nope! Another reason was the major stress, anger and anxiety levels that accompany my transition and not wanting to open up about that. I have this constant fear of making a whiny, complaining impression when in fact sharing some thoughts and feelings on this can help other people dealing with gender confusion / dysphoria. I want to stop hiding and do my small part in making transgendered people more visible. I feel inspired by the courageous folks that dare to just speak their mind on social media. Why not do the same? Time to let go of the fear. <3
