I'm Max

[maxton]

Hello everyone, I'm Max. I've thought about joining this place before, and now I finally have! I look forward to posting with all of you.

I'm 15 and an FtM. (I think.) I'm finally really thinking about who I really am, and I'm still a little apprehensive settling into this identity. I know a lot of you will understand that.

I'm also a writer, an artist, and I play the violin. I have a lot of interest in fashion and in Wicca, and I'm going to become a therapist when I'm older.

How about you? Who are you, what do you like? I'm so excited to meet you all.

Hi Max, welcome to Susan's. I know it can be a little unsettling when you first start but as you become more comfortable with your identity and yourself it should get easier. I know it has for me. I look forward to seeing you around the forums. Good luck and Hugs

Hi Max,

I'm new here as well, there seems to be a ton of good information here about FTM. Your so lucky to be investigating this at such an early age. Congratulations.

I'm a transgender woman transitioning, I have been living full time as a woman for about 6 months now and I just love it.

See you around.

Taylor.

Welcome to Susan's.

Welcome to Susan's, Max!

I came here for very similar reasons, feelings of apprehension and hesitation about even the possibility that I might be FtM. Because admitting something that huge in itself is pretty terrifying at first.

But I'll tell you what I was told in my intro post: Small steps at first, and you can always go back. If you find a certain aspect doesn't work, you can always step back. Take your time.

I wish you well in figuring yourself out!

Thank you so much! I really needed to hear this. I'm so glad I'm not alone.

I'm glad it helped, because it was exactly what I needed to hear, too. The stories I'd always heard before I came here were big, obvious things. The ones where people figured it out easily or absolutely had to change. So when you come at it with some doubt about if it suits you entirely, it can be difficult. I still have trouble specifically saying "I am trans" or "I'm FtM" to people outside of this site.

You are very much not alone. In time, you'll find tons of people on this site who share very similar experiences.

Hi Max, I'm also Max.

I'm FTM. Came out to myself at 17. Came out to everyone else and started transitioning at 25. It took me quite a bit of time to accept that this was me and that there was nothing wrong with it, so good for you for having the confidence to start reaching out to the community and learning.

The FTM board has a lot of great info no matter what you're looking for (brotherly advice, binders, packers, top surgery, T, bottom surgery, etc.). Welcome and enjoy!

Thank you so much for your kind words, also Max. I appreciate your kind words and also applaud your bravery to transition.
