Hi I'm Danni or Dan or... Daniel... Um...
As of now, I actually take the pronouns they/them/their. But I'm still trying to figure myself out...
I'm gonna experiment with a chest binder soon and trying on a skirt I haven't worn in ages just made me cringe. But I'm still gonna experiment haha.
Um... so uh... sorry if I'm not trans* as in, the transitioning, mtf, ftm...
I'm still trying to figure it all out, so I feel like I don't really belong here. But I've been told this is a great place for resources so yeah... Sorry... I kinda don't know what I am at the moment. :c
Uh... Nice to meet you all, I guess...

Hi Dan.
I hear you on the "I can't figure myself out" thing. I don't quite know what I am either, and I'm just as confused as you are. Hopefully, we can find out together.

Hi Dan
I think it's great that you can be honest about still figuring things out. Before I began transitioning I lived as genderqueer and used they/them/their pronouns too. It was a really helpful space for me to inhabit and figure out who I was. I'm sure you will find lots of helpful resources and people here.

Warm welcome to Susan's Dan lovely to have you join us.
It takes time to understand yourself and there are no timelines in your journey, even if you do or do not need too.
Nice to meet you too and I wish you well in finding what suits you best and look forward to seeing you around the forums.

Hi Daniel,
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.
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.
What you're experiencing is quite normal. Don't get too strung out on it, it will all come together in time. Just keep trying different things to see what works and what doesn't. Once you've some idea, check it out with a gender therapist, they can help navigate the labyrinth of feelings, emotions etc, so as you can find the answers you probably hold inside.
Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs
Catherine
