I ca'nt be like this!!Most of the times the only thing I think about,is surgry!!I can't concentrate to anythinh else! I ca'nt even have sex......I can't even ...(sorry) masturbate!!!!! I feel as a freak!!! I don't know what I am being in a male body,and inside being female...!!!! On Friday I will go to my psychiatrist,but I feel sooooo awful!!!!! So much pain!!!!!!!!!!!! I ca'nt handle it!!!!!

There is someone on the forum from Greece who posts regularly. 

Sorry, I don't know the routine for what happens in Greece.  Its so different from nation to nation, and in like the US different in different places.  Starting by talking to a good professional, like you are going to do is considered the best first step however.

IXT,

Do a web search for Harry Benjamin Standards of Care.  Also, a gender therapist will help you identify the things that you'll need to do.

Basically you'll need to see a therapist for some time to get his/her approval.  You will also live in your gender roll full time for at least one year.  There will also be hormone replacement therapy which will be monitored by a qualified doctor.  Once your therapist thinks you are ready, you'll need to secure a recommendation letter. 

I hope that helps.

My best to you.

ixt,
i am from greece and i think we have talked in mirc.
Srs will not change your body.HORMONES AND DIET(YES TO ME IT IS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE) will get you there.your body will be feminime and despair will go away.Body first(and face) and THEN srs.

ixt,
     i would strongly suggest NOT TO have your surgery in greece.LOTS OF REGRETS.aCTUALLY i have met 4 girls.they all had complications and not fuctional vaginas. If you can afford it go to london which is near but very expensive.Or try tailand..also you must wait 2 years for hormonotherapy before having you srs.Best of luck
