WELL, MY LITTLE MOMENT OF PEACE ON THE GENDER FRONT IS NOW OVER. MAYBE I AM FOOLING MYSELF, BUT IT SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS A LITTLE DIFFERENCE ABOUT THE LATEST MOMENT OF QUIET, LIKE SOMETHING FUNDAMENTAL HAD CHANGED. NOW THAT THE STRUGGLE IS BACK, I AM NO LONGER SURE, BUT IT STILL SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING IS DIFFERENENT NOW. IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN WHAT EXACTLY THIS DIFFERENCE MEANS TO THIS STRUGGLE, BUT I HAVE MORE HOPE OF SOME ACCOMIDATION OF MY TWO SELVES. MAY IT BE SO.

Add your supportNot for the first time, I am struck by the relationship between the amount of stress I am under and how much of a struggle I am having with my gender. The trouble is, the struggle only adds to my stress, which adds to my struggle, and the whole thing just goes round and round geting worse and worse. I dont want to sound like I am whining, but I could really really use a break from it right now.

It's like a treadmill. I don't know how to tell you to relieve it but here is an idea. I think the worst stress is always caused by a person's negative self-talk. when you notice that you are telling yourself bad things, hopeless things, negative unproductive things, try to stop and distract yourself. One time when you are feeling good, think about a happy memory and make that your permanent safe place in your mind. When you are going around and around on your treadmill, hop off and go to your happy place.
