Hi everyone.
I'm new to this website, and I thought I should make an introduction. I'm a cisgender lesbian, and I'm 19 years old. My family has had a really difficult time with this, and they put me into counseling with an unsupportive therapist in high school. She tried to convince me I was straight.
But as far as the trans community goes, I've been very interested in the trans community, ever since I was 9 years old, and I want to help the community as much as I can.
I also am in a relationship with an MTF, and I love her to death. She's everything to me. But honestly, she just came out over the summer and her family has had a really difficult time with it. She used to call me in the middle of the night crying, and send me incredibly long text messages in the middle of the night about how she regrets not changing her body sooner, and honestly it was a really difficult time for the both of us.
To be perfectly honest, the reason why I'm here is because I'm scared. I'm so scared that my girlfriend won't end up happy. I'm scared she'll get raped, or assaulted, or even killed. I'm so scared because there's so many sick people out there, and I just want her to be okay. I want to make her feel like the girl she's always been, and I just want her to enjoy her life.
I have really bad anxiety as well, so I get really scared, and I worry about her a lot.
Hopefully you guys can help me calm my nerves, and you can help me with my girlfriend. I love her so much and I just want her to be okay.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Again, I'm J and it's very nice to meet you. Have a nice day/night!

Hey J!
Welcome to Susan's :) Great to have you here - looking forward to seeing you around the forum.
Is your girlfriend involved in any trans support groups as that might help to give her a sense of how to deal with her family and safety. Hopefully she is also seeing a counsellor to help her with her grief and pain.
Please check out the following links for site rules, helpful tips and other info...
Cheers

Hi J and welcome to Susan's. I'm a lesbian as well and that was one thing that my ex-girlfriend had a little trouble with. Finding a right soul mate can be tough!

Welcome to Susan's, J. I understand your concern for your gf. It's great that she has a wonderful friend like yourself. Look out for each other and each other's well being. If there's a trans support group, as was suggested, it is a wise investment. It helped me immensely during my questioning phase. Look forward to reading your future posts. Keep us posted.
:)

Welcome to Susans!
Well... Mood changes are part of the transition. It gets better as time goes by but you should bring that to her doctor... Changing oral estradiol to patches doesn't grant stable mood but it certainly does with E level.
