I've been here many years ago during my second transition attempt. All my previous transition attempts didn't go very far into the physical realm. I spent most of my transition attempts trying to justify a transition. I would get stuck by the logistics of kids, a wife, not enough money, and not enough support. This time is different till now... I'm eight months into HRT. The world is a different place now and where I live there is a lot of support. Given that I'm a 38 year old MtF, stealth is not even close to my options right now. But luckily I there was enough tolerance and support to fully out myself this time and begin physical transition. Don't get me wrong, there it's still enough struggle (as we all know) to make this a serious undertaking. Hence why i have made my way back here again. I hope to contribute positively to this forum and hope to make some new friends along the way.
