Sabrina's Story

Many of you thought you knew me, but you did not. You had no idea how I was abused, nor how I tried to kill myself at age 14. All you knew about me is that I did not take part in most school activities and I did not have many friends. In high school , I was the outsider. I went into the USAF for 8 years. I was stationed in many places. I went from San Antonio (basic), to Biloxi, MS for school, then to Plattsburgh NY for follow on schools. My first duty station was Clovis, NM, followed by an overseas tour to RAF Upper Heyford, UK. I reup'd there and went back to Biloxi, MS for training. My last duty station was in Omaha, Ne. After I got out, I went to Thailand., I came back to Maryland, went to San Diego, came back to Maryland again, then moved to Charlotte, NC where i have been ever since. I retired from Wells Fargo as a Unix Security Engineer. I taught diversity at the company also. I graduated with a masters in Professional Counselling with trauma care masters at Grand Canyon University. I am working at a company in Gastonia nc, I will be getting licensed as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Assistant ( new title for LPCA in NC) soon. I was married to Sharon Green Catlin, but we are now divorced, We are still good friends and she does support me. She is living in Clinton. In 2013, I had a crisis of identity, and discovered my true Identity. I am a transgender woman. A lot of you ...Expand for more
can't accept me for who I am. That's okay. Just leave me alone if you have a problem with me. I do not have a disease, nor mental illness, I was born this way, but due to the way it was when i was growing up, I was deeply repressed, largely by the abuse I took at home and school. A fact no one knew back then is that I tried to kill myself when I was 14. Attempted suicide in the trans community is a serious problem, as we have a rate of 41%, compared to LGB at 12 % and cis people at under 3%. In today's world, I am part of a very diverse world. I may be different in appearance, but I am mostly still me. Those who have learned how good diversity is have embraced me and welcomed me to my true life. My name has changed, my body is changing to a different package, and some of the ways I think about things have changed. My personality has changed drastically for the better. I am happier than I ever was before. So today I am a happy woman, and my prefrred name is my professional name - Sabrina Catlin. Do not expect me at reunions, don't expect to see me come back to New Hartford, even though I may come back for a week or so every so often. If you want to establish contact and be a friend, I am on Facebook. I will not accept any abuse not intolerance. If you are a true Christian, who may not like what I am doing, but are willing to let me live as I see best, I can accept that and still be friends.
