Intro:
   
      Yays! I finally pushed my shyness out of the way and now introducing myself to this group that I feel will have a great significance in my life, it already does since I always have visited here for about 2 years, but I was shy to try and make an account and post anything. However, now that's behind me! And I am happy to now introduce myself. My birth name is Alex, however I hope I will go by Krystal one day. (Hell, I already got my emails setup with that name XD)

Who heck is this person?
   
   I am 19 and graduating high school in less than a month and I am a person who enjoys alot of things in life and recently trying my best to push aside all the negative things. I don't blame school for the times that I was suffering depression. But just realizations kicking in, sometimes I would envy others for many different reasons mainly having all these great experiences with their friends and etc. Where as I always ended up stuck in my room trying to get people to hangout with and of course the feeling of loneliness started hitting me like no other. However, I can go on about this, but I really don't want to sully my first impression. But know, that time has passed and I have moved on. And just understanding that there are negative things, but I can just accept them and just put it in the past. Because in the end, it isn't too late for me to enjoy what I wish I had in my earlier years because I am still young! :D

Now since that is out of the way, let's get to the good stuff

    I am going to begin my journey on December 11th 2017 and I will be 22 by the time that happens. (That isn't too late right?) I will be a mtf, but firstly I need focus on getting myself set for college as well as having the budget for my transition. So 3 years in being in the military and just focused on saving, which I have done many times and this will be a great achievement for me. Because I am saving for something that is really going to affect my life, and something that will make me happy in the long run...and that is all that matters.
I am seeing my psychologist about this, her and I are good friends ^.^ And because of her, she is the real reason why I made an account today :3

Hello & welcome Krystal,

Good for you for recognizing the value & importance of addressing transition now.  I also started when I was 19.  I'm now 60 and I would hate to have missed out on decades of a wonderful, fulfilling, exciting life by putting things off.  Although I'm also new to this forum it does seem to be frequented by some caring, helpful folks and could be a very good resource for you as you make your way forward. 

All the best in your journey,
Carol
