Also I was really bummed that I didn't get to do it in a confessional? Really feels weird looking someone in the eye when you list off your sins, literally.

I had to go through a psychological evaluation as part of my transition, to get approval for some procedures, and when the therapist asked me if I did any drugs, he was so disappointed with my answers (I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I drink incredibly rarely).
