Title: Hello!
Post by: Sophie Wildsong on July 03, 2015, 03:59:21 AM
Hello everyone.  I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks and it's time to make an itroduction.

I'm MtF and currently waiting for a chance to sit down with someone for councilling.  I spoke to my GP several years ago, and he sent me to talk to a psychologist who said I was a very likely candidate for gender reassignment (that was the term he used at the time anyway), and referred me for councilling...

...which my parents blocked me from getting, and I've done my best to ignore it until now, and I can't go on ignoring it.  So I spoke to my GP again, and... now I'm waiting.  So, that's where I'm at, I guess.

So, here I am.  Hello!

Thank you for the links!  I've looked at some already but I'll make sure to check everything out. 

I was born in the UK, but I live in North America.  (Please excuse me if I'm a little afraid of being more specific about my current location while online.)

Anything in particular you want to know Yenneffer?

Hi Sophie, welcome to Susan's. I can remember that point myself waiting for the day to arrive to finally talk to the therapist about my gender issues. Yes, it really does tend to come back with even more force doesn't it. I look forward to see you around the forums. Good luck and Hugs

Thank you both, very much! 

Really, it's just great to finally get to talk to other people without fear of being rejected and just... not having to keep everything a complete and total secret.
