Finally myself
Since this is a web page about what I do, it would not be complete without sharing a major change I have had to make in my life.
Male Inigo to Female Yvette
After 35 years of struggling with gender issues, something had to give last year and I took steps to get some help.
I have had some very happy years but there were also some very unhappy ones.
My psychiatrist promptly diagnosed me with gender dysphoria, which means my brain thinks I’m a woman but I have the body of a man.
It has been a long and sometimes very painful road, which is not finished yet, but now I’m finally myself; a woman. It’s a major step forward in my life.
I have never been myself, it will be very interesting to finally find out what that means.
My new name is Yvette(I chose that one) Ini(old nick name) Enid(name I was
supposed to have) Wijnen.
I now have a new birth certificate issued in the correct gender and with my new name and an new passport.
I still do the same things, and Gaiasdream although for a little while had to go on the back burner, is an high priority in my life.
I have also got a new domain name to go with my new name.
I’m sure this change will not be easy for everyone , especially people close to me.
I thank everyone for their support.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments.
With love Yvette
