Hey everyone my names ravenna im 18 : o)

ive been wondering whether im transgender or not for a few weeks
but looking back at my life i see a lot of signs that i am.
ive been thinking about seeing a therapist but im just starting to treat my severe social anxiety disorder
before i start college and get a job..and unbeknown to any professionals or
my family im battling a mild eating disorder
so its taken the back seat in my life right now

but i felt like making an account was the right thing to do and im glad i did

even a place that you can speak openly about your feelings is helpful.

Good day, mate (Australian accent)

You really ought to bring up both your eating troubles and feeling as if you are transgender to your therapist. I don't think either help your social anxiety. I am pleased to hear you are receiving help though. You definitely have came to the right place. Welcome! =]

Welcome to Susan's, Ravenna! :)

I also suffer from sever social anxiety, as well as depression. Nothing helped me until I progressed some in my transition. Now both are greatly reduced. That may not be what you need but I wanted to throw that out there just in case. ;)
