Having never actually experienced that kind of inhuman abuse and rejection, on top of other traumas, I can only try to comprehend the pain and anguish you feel. I can, however include you in my prayers for healing - for the figurative hands of God embracing your weary heart in love and acceptance to be tangible for you.

Reach out here all you can - there are many willing loving people here, not to mention transgendered or those partnered with transgendered folks, who will have empathy with your story. I have also seen PTSD frequently discussed. And, because the church is such a loving organization sometimes, we have tons of people healing from spiritual damage.

It seems to me you're just like one of the gang here, so step right in and make yourself comfy.
