PTSD and dysphoria

Blog About: 

Author: 

Been a rough couple of days, struggling with PTSD, Dysphoria, and worrying about my family as my mom has been struggling lately, and we still don't know what is going on with my brother.

Anyway, I am accepting hugs and prayers, if you want to send them my way.

Just saw on CNN, Saturday 4/12/25... They are reporting the disappearance of some of those who disagree with Trump. I know that there are Thousands or even Millions of demonstrators so this seems implausible. I am just waiting to see what develops and keeping my head down for now.

Gillian makes her musical debut!

An important part of transition is finding different ways to open up to the world and express yourself. And an important one for me is through my singing.

I started feminine voice classes in the fall of 2023. When my voice began to solidify and develop in early 2024, I tested it out by singing along with a variety of songs on YouTube. And my teacher encouraged me to do it as part of my voice training. Funding for those classes ran out. But I continued to practice and decided last fall to sign up for formal training at a local music school.

I found out today that my brother will have a pacemaker implanted in 6 weeks. Despite this, my sister doesn't seem very optimistic, and told me she got a black dress in case she needs to hold his funeral.

From baby steps to toddling

It's been 5 months since I got to be Leeanna. I have longed to be female since I was around 4 years old and wondered why I couldn't wer pretty clothes and play with the girls. "Boys don't....." I was told. So this led to a double life. I married and had 3 boys. Now I feel it is too late and I would break too many hearts if I acted on my desires. I remain committed to my male life, which I don't hate. Who is to say I would have been happier living as a female? Back in the 1970's when grew up trans people were treated very badly.

I guess I owe everybody an apology

So I guess my latest story is a bit of a flop.

I had wanted to make a clever little story that would serve as a metaphor for having multiple personalities, and apparently almost nobody got that idea.

Which means I wasnt as clever as I hoped I would be. so I am very sorry.

I dreamed I killed a man

So last night, I dreamed I killed a man.

I was following him up some kind of tunnel or shaft, and it led to a rocky platform. I grabbed the man, and threw him off the platwform.

And since he landed face first on something hard a long way down, I figured he was dead.

weirdest part was I didnt seem fazed by the fact I had just killed.

I dont know if I wanna know why my brain came up with that dream . . .

This past week I was reminded of something important……

Blog About: 

Author: 

By a few people that I thought I could trust; people who I have always thought of as family, people that I was under the impression thought of me the same way. These are people that I care for and thought that I could trust them because they cared about me. But I was reminded of the fact that trust is a fickle and fleeting thing for some people in this world.

Over the past several months, I have been re-reading a lot of stories and books that I have previously read. This line was in one of those stories and it really hit home after the week I have had……

Julia Phillips and Anmar

It has now been just over a year since I last heard from Julia. Our regular email exchange broke off in the middle of a conversation and I have to accept that she is no longer with us.

I want to provide some notes about her and what her contributions mean for the future of Anmar.

yet another Dottie Dream

So its dream time again!

Last night, I dreamed I got an opportunity to work in a school as a teacher's assistant.

So after walking around to get a feel for the layout of the school, I went to the office, only to find out the program I was part of had been canceled, and they really didn't know what to do with me.

a dream of dysphoria

Blog About: 

Author: 

So last night, I dreamed I was a superhero.

I had this gun that would stun someone without permanent damage.

I got summoned to join a group of other heroes facing off a group of villains.

I was doing well, when suddenly I was hit with a case of dysphoria so bad I could barely walk, and one of the other heroes half carried me to our target.

Dont ask me, folks.

Three Moments of Positivity February 2025

Blog About: 

Author: 

Sephrena Lynn Miller asks us this morning to try to be positive about life. It's been very difficult in a deluge of bad things happening. But there are some good things to be joyful about. So in that spirit, I'd like to share three of them from this week.

my brain is weird - big news, I know

Blog About: 

Author: 

so my subconscious has decided to let me graduate from school, and now sends me dreams of being in the working world.

For the last week or so, I have dreamed of working in a daycare, at a water park, a newspaper office, and last night, working as a manager at a restaurant.

Since I never did any of those jobs in real life I am not sure where they are coming from, or what my subconscious is trying to tell me, if anything.

My brain is weird, which probably doesnt come as a surprise to anyone here.

No chapter posts this week

Caution: 

Blog About: 

Author: 

I will not be posting any chapters this week because I've been really sick this week after bouncing back from the flu. I spent the past three days in bed with a high fever and mostly sleeping. I'm still feeling weak and kinda terrible so don't think I can focus on writing anything quality. So, I've decided it's best to just take the rest of the week off and recover since most of it has been a write-off anyway.

*big hugs*

I'm beginning to think my wife has given up objecting.

Blog About: 

Author: 

She seems to have become very tolerant of how I dress when I go out. First it was when we were going to the doctor for her appointments. My attire was seriously on the feminine end of androgynous even with lipstick and mascara. She twice allowed it where she used to make a fuss if I wore knee high nylons instead of socks.

2025 is not going well for me so far

Blog About: 

Author: 

I honestly don't know what impression I make here. I suspect most of you see me as some combination of Happy Fun Time Huggle Giver, and Woman Who Constantly Sabotages Her Own Life and Then Whines About It.

Well, sadly, I have to do the later, and 2025 is not going well for me.

I have had several issues with my car, including repairing the undercarriage, replacing the battery, and most recently, replacing the tires, and now it seems I am not done yet, as my check engine light turned on today.

Stopped by the police while en femme

Blog About:

Last week, I went to the "big city" (I live in a small town; 2500 pop.) to do some shopping. Most of the time, I dress out of the butch side of my wardrobe; women's clothes but the effect is androgynous. That allows people to see me the way they want to. I'm always surprised when they look at me and address me as a woman, but it does happen and when it does my voice doesn't shake their perception.

Writing Aids...

I have been around this site almost from the beginning. Sephrena (hope I got the spelling right), sent me a PM to invite me over. I "think" it was around 2005 or 2007, don't really know. My first story here shows 2008.

I am writing this blog to see how others do their writing.
I write on a desktop computer with keyboard elevator. It used to be that PAIN ! was my way of life and I took lots of prescription opiate drugs back then. Nowadays, I rarely take any drugs at all and since I don't work anymore, I hurt less.
