Hi!

[Gryphon Emergent]

Hi, I'm so glad I found this. I am 50 and I finally had to admit to myself that I was not the mask that I've always worn. I am hoping to make friends and get advice as I begin a new leg of my journey to finally be me. Thank you.

Hi Gryphon Emergent!  Welcome to Susan's Place, I'm Jessica.  I didn't have the resources to be the real me until I was 61.  It's never too late for truth.  Transitioning at an older age is not uncommon and there are many here that have found the support they needed from everyone here. 
Please read the links that Danielle provided for you, they are full of very helpful information that can help you navigate around Susan's Place.
