Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Hi! I am new to here. Please take good care of me. My name is Penelope withey and yes you can call me Penny for short. I am 26 and single tho dating is not something I think I could do anytime soon. I live with my disabled mom and younger brother of 16 whom I take care of. I have not transitioned tho I am talking to a therapist atm and am in the process of getting HRT! I am not sure tho I could afford it as I have to rely on my mom's income atm til I can find a job. I am hoping that when I get on HRT I will become more relaxed and less rushed. I feel like its a race against time to get on hormones as I feel like my body is slowly becoming more gross. I hate it so much that I sometimes freak out at just being alive. But dark stuff aside. I love video games and Manga.

I want to write! I love writing stories all the time, tho my grammar sucks. I have over 20 stories I want to turn into books. Mangas if I could, instead of books would be awesome. But I suck at drawling. I am unsure how to go about on this site. I hope it becomes a place I can make friends and find lots of good ideas and tips on everyday life. I am curious tho as to the average cost of Transitioning. It cost me 15 bucks to talk to my therapist and 75 for the letter. The Hormones are 75 as well. Or just about. So it be just under or at 100 bucks a month for Hormones. I kno electrolysis is the next thing I want. Beards... gross. I hate shaving. But love a shaved face <3 Anyways, I dont kno how much that will cost me. But I am sure it be like 100 a week? or something like that.

I kno I will need that surgery eventually tho I wont have money for that for awhile so I am in no hurry. Hormones is all I can think about atm. After HRT its Elect and then body hair. I think Laser hair removal will work right?  Then FFS and maybe breast augmentaion. Tho I dont mind being apart of the itty bitty titty committy. lol Just having enough for a bra would put a smile on this chick face! Ha! I also am not sure I should get Vocal feminization surgery. As if its worth it. I do want to remove my adams apple tho! Ugh its just sticking out like a bad neighbor. Then there is normal things I will need like braces and I have really bad arches that prevent me from running more then a few mins. My feet eventually feel like they are on fire. I was told there is a surgery to fix that. Tho I dont really care as long as I get the Gender confirming surgery, im good. So anyways, what do you guys think? Also let me kno if you want to talk and maybe if anyone is near where I live and maybe we can hang out. I live in Florida, Fort walton beach.

Hi Penny and welcome to Susan's. Congrats to you on moving forward towards transition.

:)

Recently I have moved alot. I am living with my aunt atm. Me and my mom who is disabled and little brother. I am supposed to be the one to take care of my mom and brother. So I am the one that has to find a place for us to live. We get evicted on the first. I am told to find a house but its not that simple if there are none available. We can only afford a 600 rent place. And that is a stretch. I prefer as close to 500 as I can. However I cant find anything. Most places I find are taken. It be cool if someone knew of a place for us and could help out. Real problem is. No car and soon my aunt is removing internet. She is moving out and its her grandma's place. So she is taking her stuff with her. She pays for the internet. I am like, first you tell me to find a place before the first of April. Now you are taking the net. How am I supposed to find a place? The grandma says to go to the Library. But I would have to walk there and its other side of town. Just to check a few things and walk back. Sounds like you could just make it simple and leave the net til after the first. She dont even use it. She just doesnt want anyone making it more expensive. I dont even use that much. Just this atm and some videos here and there.

Anyhow. I need a place to live. Anyone know what I could do? My mom only makes 900 and until I know where we moving to I cant really apply. Since I dont have a car. It have to be near where I live. No job. No extra money. 

Hey!
