Title: My Intro
Post by: Llano on October 22, 2014, 07:24:02 PM
Hi Everyone,

I'm new to Susan's, I've read on here, but only just made an account.

I'm from the UK and I've been struggling with Gender Dysphoria (MTF) for the past 2-3 months. It's made me very anxious when I don't get to express my true self and I've now come out to my wife of 3 years as questioning (This has not been taken well :( ).

I've already spoken with a private Gender Therapist who's helping guide me, but I'm still so scared about everything that's been happening, especially as it's happened quite late in life. Although looking back through my past, there were signs all along.

Hoping I can make some friends, get and give advice, and somehow feel like I'm not alone in all of this!

Claire

Hi Claire, welcome to Susan's Place! Since I'm from Boston I feel obligated to offer you a cup of tea.  >:-) 
Grab a comfy chair and start making friends. See you around the site!

Hugs, Devlyn

Thank you both for the welcomes :)

Devlyn, despite being English, I'm more of a Coffee person, especially as I'm working nights at the moment and it's 2:30am! Only 7.5 more hours I need to stay awake!
