Hello my name is Beth. I live on Whidbey island in Washington state.
I am lesbian in orientation.
I'm almost 44 , on HRT since Feb 2010.
It's been a godsend.
I've known inside my entire life I am a woman.

But thanks to being trained out of what was natural to me by family and
societal pressure, I repressed myself totally for 42 of those years.
My doctors found I was also xxy without exhibiting any of the common outer traits, but
instead a slightly higher feminine hormone level than the average male, and medical scans
and monitors looking for a medical problem I have found a female developed brain and synapse sequencing.
They found this out 6 years ago and never bothered to tell me assuming I knew.

While my life since beginning transitioning has made me a much more stable and happier person,
My other medical issues make it so I am unable to work, thus I most likely will be stuck with this genitalia, the rest of my life.
That to me is the most depressing thought in the world.

I'm hoping to meet and learn and share with other here if I possibly can.
Thanks
