Welcome Sockie. I just wanted to tell you that I've been in T for 13 months and I'm still having trouble talking. Ts are used to it and it's completely normal. Therapy is hard. We are supposed to be in the driver's seat leading the way and our Ts following us closely behind, to where we want/can take them. That doesn't seem they won't try to steer from time to time. Going to the first appointment is hard and scary but if you find the right fit for you, it can be the best thing you did for yourself.
