Hiyas :~)
I've been on the Susan's irc chat for a month or so, thought I'd join up here too :~)
Little about me - lived with repressed gender confusion until I tuned 32.
Started cross-dressing around then, and living on the internet as a girl, though I wasn't 'out' until later.
'Outed' myself to the whole world, friends and family included, around 12 months ago. Started seeking out help around that time, too.
---
Since then, everything has snowballed. Been living full-time for 6 months, also commenced HRT 6 months ago.
Life is incredible now. I can express myself, *be* myself. Even though I'm almost 36 now ... it's certainly not too late!
---
I realise now that ... life is all about attitude. The way I am directly affects how people respond to me. It doesn't matter than I'm physically only half-way there.
I wouldn't say that transitioning is essential to having the right attitude. It's not a journey I would wish on anyone. But for me, *who* I was felt hooked into the mould I had been set into.
Now that mould is well and truly broken - the real me has finally been unleashed :~)
God bless you all - I hope this path can give you that second chance at life it has for me.

Hi Sarah,
A big Aussie welcome to Susan's family. It's good of you to drop in and say "Hi". Hope you like it here, and you stay for a while. Such a great name as well.
There is a mountain of information, resources and friendship waiting for you here, you just need to jump in start talking and ask any question you like. You're quite safe here and we are very accepting.
Great to hear you've been moving along so well, discovering all the hidden gems in this thing they call transition. I'm confident these will continue to grow and give you a life beyond imagination.
Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs
Catherine
