FTM Transgender: Having A Bad Day.

this is myself and my lovely girlfriend. 

Here it goes. My first blog about me. I have a vlog as well on YouTube. I am not sure if I am any good at this talking about myself, but here it goes. 
I had a really hard day today. I know I tell people to just shake it off when people are hateful, or when people won't accept you, but I just let it get to me today. A good number of people are supportive of me even though they don't all understand. I am trying to help them understand and explain things. 
The thing that I let get to me is the fact that my uncle not only deleted me, but blocked me on Facebook. According to him I need to find Jesus, yada yada, I'm going to hell. 
Why do people keep telling me I'm going to hell? 
I am usually not the down and out type. I usually shake things off, but I am only human. I can't be strong all the time. So I took a me day. Talked to my friend. Talked to my girlfriend. Tomorrow will be another day. 
I know I am not the only one that has days like this. If you are Transgender, be it FTM or MTF, I just want you to know that if you are feeling down right now you won't always feel that way. There are always going to be hateful people out there, but don't listen to them. Listen to what the people that are there to support you have to say. Build yourself a wall of support to help block out the hate. 
If you feel like you don't have anyone to talk to there are people you can talk to, give the people at the Trans Lifeline a call. 

In later blogs I am just going to talk about my life. Trying to find a doctor, how therapy is going. I will also try to find some resources for other transgender people so it isn't so hard on you. 

Below is a video from my vlog. I'm still not used to talking to a camera.
