hello everyone,
i just started hormones a couple months ago shortly before i found this site.
i have suffered like most people with my condition-living in a gender trap of boy or girl. Society always saw me as a boy (apart from the often mishaps when i was younger), but my mind would not register what other people kept telling me, i was a rebel... i was a girl.
I have finally been given the all clear from a councilor, two doctors, a psychologist and an endocrinologist-and am now on 'the blues' (progynova) and "the 'awful' mints" (aldactone spironolactone).
My mother and her bestfriend; my sister and her boyfriend; speech pathologist and obviously the specialists named above are the only people who know my secret... i'm going to have a sex-change. These people have been very supportive to me and though stressed off their nut, questioning

this many times have vowed to stand by me.
This year means study. I completed year 12 last year and now will be attending university. During now and the end of this year i will be studying on campus at uni as well doing speech pathology, then i 'will' move away from the small town i live in-dump my identity and transition to a woman.. sorry start living as a woman.. i'm already a woman inside!!
My goal is to trasition safely and with as much ease as possible (heh... heh... heh...)
I also want to meet up with many other women who will/have trasitioned to share advise, tips and join some sort of support network.
Remember girls we are all beautiful... every... single... one of us is... and the only way to stay beautiful is to stick by one and another and express our love and feelings for one and another and never forget to smile and be happy.

Love Latia

xoxo
ps-i sort of made up the name Latia-tell me what do you think of it?
