Welcome to Jamie Lauren Wyrick's Home

A special, "Hello," and, "Thank you," for visiting my site. Since you've come this far, then you must be interested enough to want to know a bit more about me. My name is Jamie Lauren. This isn't the name I was born with, but the name I've chosen to call myself and will one day soon take forever for my very own. I was born July 5th, 1954. At the time of this writing I am a 45-year old pre-op transsexual. I have been on female hormones since March of 1999. I have been married twice. Both times, the marriage was simply a mistake of judgement on my part, in trying to find someone, anyone, to share a bit of my life with so that it would be a bit less lonely. And this is all I care to say about the subject of my past two marriages.

I have no children. I share my life, - good times and the bad times, - with the one friend and companion that has chosen me as his friend. His name is Pepper, my cat. Anyone that lives with such a creature knows that you don't choose a cat to be "your pet," they either choose you, or will simply walk out of the room on you. Or, at the very least, sit with their back to you totally ignoring your speaking to them until you're completed winded. In my case, whenever I'm home, he usually hovers close by, rarely leaving my side. Or laying directly above my computer monitor.

I have known since I was 4-years old that I was different. I am not ashamed of what I am. It has taken me too many years, to finally accept with quite peace that I am transsexual. Many long nights were spent sitting alone in a darkened house, wishing things were different, or would just go away, or lying in bed in the quite dark for hours curled up tightly around a pillow, aching with the "longing-for" feelings that only get stronger in frequency and duration and never goes away. Not even going away while sleeping, nor, certainly when awake.

Having finally come to terms with the fact that this is indeed what I am, I began threapy a few years ago with a fine counselor that I have grown quite fond of and respect. He has been kind, gentle and supportive throughout. I have come out to certain family members, and some acquainces. If you would like to  know more about GID, there are numerous resources available on the net with excellent information and materials on the subject.
