When should i start.

[mariella]

Hi all,

Ive had small steps in accepting that i am what i am which is female.

I came out to my best girl friend and we spoke alot about it, and it made me feel great. She even tested me calling me by girly reference when she got called she said "Yeah im at home with a girl friend of mine" and it actually made me feel great.

I want to run to the dokter to start this road, but i have my own business with a companion of mine which is going insanely well the last 3 months, he would not accept the fact that i will change and i don't mind him im a 19 year old who happens to get everything i want on nr1 in google which is a good market right now. Also i have a problem with my study i still need to study for 1.5 more years.. is it smart to go through all the problems there or wait till i finished and started another company without my companion...

I have to say that im a newbie on this forum that doesn't want to be here allthough the last month ive been accepting the way i am and it feels great.

What do you think i should do, any feedback is appreciated

Im 19 years old too , I chose to transition now  , this will obviously affect my studies etc
buuut I can really stand appearing as a guy anymore...

Its up to you , if you feel that you need to do it then do it...if you feel that you can wait a little then wait...

hhhm you shouldnt let the years pass though,,,you ll only get more damage from testosterone...

Hi Mariella,

Welcome to Susan's family. Congratulations on your recent decision. Probably one of the hardest you'll ever make.

Transition is not a DIY or a Robinson Crusoe (solo) process. For it to be done successfully you need professional advice. May I suggest you seek a competent gender therapist, who can give you more information about your options, some of which will no doubt contain local matters concerning transition.
