Hi Tim. Congratulations and welcome to the forum.

Hi Tim, congratulations on your time! I celebrated five years in February. Just found the addiction thread. It's good to see other trans-identified people in recovery--I know there's at least one meeting in my city for sober trans people, though I haven't been yet. I'm still early in my trans journey (trans recovery?), and I plan to hit it up when I feel more comfortable.

I think that getting sober helped me sort out/acknowledge my resentments toward gender. However, it took another five years for me to finally "get honest" about this part of myself. A life beyond our wildest dreams, eh?

Hope all is well!

Welcome Rythm   So glad you are seeking help. May i make a suggestion to take an inventory of those around you. When I went through my period of discovery. I realized, it's not about me. In 12 step they encourage you to seek a higher power. Mine was my newborn son. I have been clean and sober for over 30 years. My kids are still my power. Bless you for coming to the logical conclusion it's time to change. Best wishes for a continued recovery.

Congrats, Tim. That's a big deal. I'll have 2.5 years on the 6th. I came out in sobriety and my home group has been uber supportive. They have been a huge part of both my recovery and transition.
