Thank you very much, Shantel, and I'm very glad that I found y'all, too! And yes, just from the short time that I've been here, I've been enjoying observing and interacting with some of the wonderful, varied personalities here. 😀 And thank you very much, I know I'll try my best to contribute to this community and I hope that my two bits worth might be helpful to someone in some small way just as others' insight on here have been helpful to me!
Thank you so much, JulieR, it feels good to be in the right place! I can relate to that feeling of not quite knowing what to do with it all! I know for me it can be confusing trying to sort through the different thoughts, feelings, and often conflicting needs of both sides of my identity. And thank you, I know it has been helpful for me to recognize when I'm identifying as male or female and what triggers the shift, whether gradual or sudden, from one to the other.
