Hello everyone

[Araneae]

Hello everyone! My name is Alex and I'm 26 years old. I live in Montreal, Canada.

I am physically male, but recently I've realized that for a long time I've felt different on the inside. I used to always deny my feelings and thoughts and I had become pretty good at it, but that was probably not such a good idea because it all came out at the same time about a week ago. All of the feelings, thoughts and things that I've done in the past suddenly came back and I got a bit overwhelmed by it.

However, I've calmed down a lot now after a week of feeling depressed and having lost focus in everything. I also feel a bit better now. Mostly because I've finally accepted my feelings and I've decided not to completely ignore them anymore. I'm still very much at a questioning phase to try to finally discover myself, but one thing that's for sure is that I am not 100% a man on the inside. For now I would say I am probably androgynous and I feel OK with that.

I'm probably going to go for therapy at some point soon and I'll see where things go from there.

Anyway! Besides that, I enjoy playing Badminton, running, biking and traveling. Oh and I like cats.

And with that, I say greetings to everyone and I hope to be able to learn a lot while I am here and potentially be able to eventually share that knowledge back with others.

- Alex

Hi Alex,
Another warm Aussie welcome to Susan's family. I'm pleased you have been able to take that giant leap of faith and put your heart and feelings where you have. That is 85% of the solution.
There are plenty of other family members here like you, so there is no shortage for friends. You have a bright and wonderful attitude in wishing to learn and give it back again. You'll grow into a mighty woman.

Hope to hear more from you in time to come, in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs
Catherine

Hey Alex,

A big Canadian welcome from a Torontonian, live in the western burbs. I have a cd mtf friend transferred to Montreal for about 5 years. I had relatives there and visited a lot that, it is like my second home. Love the old section of the city & going up on Mount Royal and Beaver Lake.

I am sure you will find some answers via wonderful people here and the resources.

Enjoy.

Jamie
