Hi,
Over the last few years my life has been both amazing and it's fallen apart.  I've gotten married! Yay! Been in a crazy financial crisis. Not yay. Gained familial support. Yay! Lost my shot at a degree.  Another not yay.  Things have been nuts but those are the biggest points that I'm going to air online for now.  Things have been stressful enough without hiding who I am.  So, I came out to those closest to me.  They were all very chill with it.  It really couldn't have gone better.  I'm FTM (I think).  In all honesty I may be more of an androgyne.  I haven't fully come to terms with all of it myself.  I feel weird for that.  It seems that it should be a simple: "are you a male or not?"  I don't know.  All I know is that I feel wrong.  My body doesn't match up to my brain.  I'm not on hormones.  I can't afford the breast reduction I need.  I have no resources.  I'm rather close to MTF person, but as you all know, they go through some different challenges so the resource base only overlaps to a point.  I'm really just wanting community for now.  I have a great support system but they don't know what I'm feeling first hand.  Talking to others who know from experience would be nice.
