Greetings and salutations

[JetteCo]

I'd like to introduce myself, my name is Jason but I am slowly going by Jeanette (Jette for short). I am 33 and have started my transition recently.  I have been struggling with my gender for a long time and well I have finally bit the bullet and addressed these feelings I've had my whole life.  I started cross dressing in high school and have regularly worn women's clothing since my late teens.  As long as I can remember I have dressed and acted like a woman. 

I will be looking for advice as to what my steps should be to move forward with this as I have recently changed jobs to a smaller company (I work IT on point of sales systems).  I have a great support group behind me and my closest friends are 100% behind me and are challenging me.  I have finally had the confidence to be out and a bout as a woman on a daily basis and no longer feel that I need to hide myself from the world.

Hey Jette!
It's great you have such support, it really important and make things a lot easier. But here the thing - it's up to you to decide how to move on. You can start your HRT, work on removing unwanted hair, work on your voice and do whatever you consider neccessary to be more yourself. Decide what you want and make your way to it

Welcome here
