I indirectly outed myself on Facebook today.

I saw the ‘labels/100% human‘ photo resurface on Facebook again today, from another LGBT organisation (international), with a few of my friends ‘liking’ it, and I got a little bit infuriated again. So I uploaded a link to the related blog post, An Angry Interruption, to my Facebook wall. I’ve had the most views on my blog ever today. I’m glad people are taking the time to read it, seeing a photo they must’ve seen before, and maybe changing their mind. I suspect people are also taking the time to see who wrote it, and seeing that oh-so handsome recognisable photo of  the blogger at the bottom of the page. I guess that saved me having to have ‘the conversation’ whenever I bump into a familiar face.

In other news, I have received a letter with my appointment to have my mental health evaluated, and a chance to discuss my ‘gender dysphoria’. It is in June, as they promised on the phone. But now I have the name of the doctor, a location, a time and a date. It’s hitting me. I’m a little worried now. Well, nervous. At least I’ve got plenty of time to think about what to say, how to say it, etc. But that’s a bad thing. I’ll drive myself crazy. And then I really will need my mental health assessed. At least I’ve got plenty of coursework deadlines in the way to keep me distracted until then.

With every cloud…
