So what’s the story here, this story of the Queer Kyd from Kansas?
Stories I suppose.
The story of being a post-op transwoman and the quest for inner peace; it’s not quite finished. Gender Dysphoria. A true path or another symptom of PTSD?
The story of being raped as a young child and the consequent PTSD:; unknown and hidden, overwhelmed by the guilt and shame.
The story of depression, fighting alcohol addiction; suicidal ideation and the fear of dying.
The story of dealing with chronic pain; times curled up in a fetal position needing help so badly, wanting it over.
The story of mental and physical health care; being your own advocate to offset lack of care, lack of caring. Therapies and medications medications medications.
The stories of people and friendships and loves and loss. Pathways crossed, foot steps together.
The story of love.
Survival.
Contentment.
There’s always another story.
I hope.
