Title: Hello!
Post by: snowlight on April 17, 2015, 11:33:04 PM
Hello all! I'm Sarah, an 18yr old trans girl from the US. I've been aware of my gender for a few years now, and have been lucky to have a supportive family and friends. I have anxiety and depression, which tend to make conversations, especially about my gender, difficult in person, as even with a therapist I get anxious. This is the first community that is relatively transgender-specific, so I'm hoping I'll be able to learn from here and hopefully contribute back to the community!

My interests tend to include computers, with my latest hobby being hacking away on 90s systems. I also love winter weather (living in the Northeast, I tend to enjoy it here in winter) and cities, which unfortunately tends to contrast with my anxiety, but it ends up being fun to spend time in the city instead of my almost-nowhere home in any case! I'm currently a first-year college student studying computer science.

Sorry for the long introduction ;; I hope to get to know you all soon!

Welcome, Sarah. I think you'll find a nice group of folks here of all ages and persuasions. And lots to read. As with most sites, take what you need and leave the rest.

I look forward to your posts and hope to see you in our real time chat <best joined via <irc.susans.org>
