posted in your other thread, but:
In all seriousness, try out the Ruger LCP (which is the same gun others have mentioned [LC9]; instead of 9mm, it is .380 and possibly more manageable for you). I've seen good reviews on it as a very concealable, light weight and reliable gun.
Hickok45 on YouTube has some videos on it:

I personally just purchased a Glock 26 (9 milimeter) or "baby Glock", which is a subcompact. A buddy loves his and I know many others do as well.

At the risk of derailing this thread.
Are you left or right handed? Should be determined by finding out which is your dominant eye, for best shooting results. Some without much experience prefer revolvers (they seem simpler to people, are reliable, possibly more).
You can get a pocket gun later, don't let whether the experience is pleasant be derailed by shooting a small gun which increases perceived recoil.
A Sig P236, P239 are hard to beat, but if left handed the safety is not "ambi" from factory. I would recommend a 9mm, ammo less expensive (more practice), "+P" is enough except for those who are in the "45acp or nothing" camp. A Springfield XDM is a great gun, great shooting, better than Glock in that it does not rely solely on trigger safety. Those are a few ideas.
Get the LCP, etc after you have practiced and enjoy shooting with a full size gun, IMO.
