Thanks. It helps to talk about it, even as little as I did here. I understand i'm sort of on the outside of the complications and issues that the majority of members of this website have, I just don't know where to go. She's understandably very anxious and hesitant to really, really start on her transition. She knows she wants to do it, but I think it's just the crossing-the-point-of-no-return aspect of it, and even then...She's not really *scared*, per se, just...It's easy for her to talk herself into doing it tomorrow, or next week, or whatever.
And this is in her home state. She's moving within the next month or two here, and I imagine there's going to be even less resources available locally - maybe in Atlanta, or in Tampa, Orlando, Miami, or somewhere in SC or NC...But I doubt there's anything truly available locally, as far as any therapists or counselors or psychologists, suitable endocrinologists(?), or even surgeons. And god forbid if she has any medical complications, or legal issues while changing her residency, registering to vote, getting a DL or a carry permit, changing her name or gender in Georgia, etc, etc, etc...
I want to be the knight in shining armor, who has every answer and every solution, and I don't and I'm not sure if I ever will, but it's nice to know that there's resources available for me to find out necessary information, as needed. I just have to ask and dig, more than a simple Google.
Again, thanks...It eases my own anxiety just being able to talk about it, and I apologize if I'm on the wrong board, again - I saw the Significant Others board, but that seemed geared towards SO's of individuals discovering or coming out as transgender after already entering into the relationship, rather than knowingly entering into a relationship with a trans person.
