Anaissa

I’m a mature transgender female. Born, in error, into a male body, I have spent a lifetime trying to repress, sublimate or deny my feminine persona. I am finally ready to emerge as Anaissa, thereby freeing myself from the daily pain of gender dysphoria. Right now I am incredibly lonely but altogether hopeful.

“Sometimes I don't know what I am. But what I would like to be on the outside -- what I want other people to see -- is a girl.”

It’s 3:48 a.m. and I’m wide awake. Can’t stop thinking about my appointment with a gender therapist later this morning. I’ve been to a psychologist before, but I’ve never sat with someone who mig...

Relief in The Emergence of Anaissa

I received two thoughtful and kind well-wishes from angels who read my very first post. I hope I’ll hear from them again, but I am simply relieved that I have officially shared my intention to tr...
