1ST CHRISTMAS AS QUINN

  This is a very special Christmas for me and the son of one of my epilepsy friends in the states. The son and I will be spending this Christmas in what we both have said to family "our true selves". My friend's son started his life as Ava and last year went through transition into who he feels he really is. That is Nathan from everything I've hears he feels so much more free. I have that exact feeling with Quinn. 

 With my coming out bisexual and most recently non binary I have discovered a Christmas gift to myself. My Christmas gift is becoming who I feel so comfortable with and very relaxed with. My Christmas gift is now being referred to as Quinn. 

 I have felt the world off my shoulders since I have been going by Quinn. Yes still having a few seizures but some of that has to do with the time of year, Christmas is always a big trigger for me.

 Another great gift is almost  everyone at all my poker games are now using Quinn. Not David or just Bezer. There are still 3 who are like my family who just won't use Quinn so use last name. The reason they do this is because it's so unique and for well over 20 years some have used that.  

 Thanks to everyone for my awesome Christmas gift.

OUR TERMS OF ENDEARMENT

  In every other relationship I have been in, including other times my current GF and I were together they were either my GF or my partner/BF. We also had terms of endearment that we would like to use with each other. Things like shutterbug, butterfly for a couple of examples. Then yes with everyone dated typical ones like sweetie hun babe.  With this relationship because of my non binary Transgender identity I got the most awesome nickname/term of endearment ever.  Instead of BF or just hun sweetie I am referred to as a Joyfriend. Joyfriend it makes my heart leap and feel so awesome. Because it's such a gender neautral name that can be used with anyone. Going out and hearing this is my Joyfriend makes me smile and gives me a huge great feeling inside. Nicknames really can be amazing for sure.

NAME DYSPHORIA

 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ It took me a while to decide what site I was going to put this one in as it is effecting me both with my seizure side and my Non Binary prefered name side. I decided finally to enter it here as in the end really applies more to this blog. Especially with the certain situations and places the name dysphoria can and has kicked in. It really has kicked in at home as all of family absolutely refuses to acknowledge me as Quinn and I'm still referred to by my birthname this I have noticed every so often is a trigger for a seizure. Or at least a trigger where I need to destress.   Another place I found it effecting me and in this area a fair bit I have to admit is my fault. This happens at poker especially on a Sunday afternoon I finding it more percentage if you take the size of the crowds. It's strange before I came out as Quinn I never minded going by my last name. But I guess because my new name has turned me into a new person, more free person. Or should I say...

ENTRY FOR JENNIFER

   Being at the very least non binary person dating a CIS person I wasn't sure that would happen again.  It really surprised me when I began dating Jennifer again, I'm not saying there is anything bad. Actually indeed  everything has been going like on ice so smooth and a perfect glide.  We've had a few nice at home dates and have brought us together. Simple watching tv listening to music. We get to hug and cuddle and it brings and has brought us closer together. Especially because we don't live super close. Well we do but because neither of us drive it sort long distance.  So no matter the time we get together it's nice and special.   It gets really fun when we go out, especially when I can take my turns dressing up. Plus when I'm out with my CIS GF we can do things in both area's. What do I mean by this either we spend time where pretty much everyone would or we can ho to LGBTQ district's. So both sides get covered.
