Hi, my name is Ian, I'm a 21 year old trans guy studying creative writing in Illinois.
I've joined-- or maybe rejoined, I couldn't find my original account but that doesn't mean it never existed especially since I'm like 112% sure I've signed up for Susan's before-- because today I called and scheduled both of the necessary appointments to start on testosterone with the Howard Brown Health Center in Chicago. In about three weeks (THREE WEEKS ONLY THREE WEEKS WOW) I will be on the road to Chicago to finally, finally start physically transitioning. It has been a long journey so far and I'd love to make some more friends as I continue forward
And, likely, some support for when the inevitable freakouts hit. Don't get me wrong, I've been sure I've wanted to physically transition since I was eighteen, but monumental life decisions equal equally monumental anxiety attacks in ianland.
