FIRST TIME AT THE CLINIC

Today was the first time at the official gender clinic.  It was a really weird experience, I was so nervous and scared about what it's going to be like. As soon as I got in the car to drive there I was feeling sick, I felt like I needed lots of water. When we got to the clinic it didn't look like what I thought it would.

I went into the clinic with my mum and dad and I had to fill in a form which was basically asking if they can get in touch with my GP and stuff. There was a bit on the form that was my name it said Lee Wallace and the woman said to me I can change it if I want to so I changed it to Bee and everyone started to call me Bee while I was there. That made me feel good, really good in fact!

When the Dr called my name I was so nervous! We started to walk through to his little room and before we went in he said ''Do you want to come alone or with your mum and dad with you?'' I hesitated
 and said I'd like to come alone but then I said I want my mum and dad to come in with me. So we all went in the room and then he started asking me lots of questions, I kept saying I can't remember because I was nervous so I asked my mum to talk and then she answered what he was asking. We were all talking and we decided that my mum and dad would leave the room because he was going to ask me some personal questions, so they left.

After they left he asked me questions about my sex life and such. It was really quite awkward considering I'd never met him before but I opened up and told him everything because that's what you should do. I swear that man now knows more about me than any of my friends..

We discussed what would happen next. He said he will interview me one more time then get a second opinion and then he said I should get hormones.

I am so happy I went today, it was honestly the best thing ever! Although it was really nerve racking I quite enjoyed it. I can't wait for the future!
