Title: CaptainxTatsuo's Intro-Story
Post by: CaptainxTatsuo on November 09, 2015, 04:57:02 PM
So it's CaptainxTatsuo,
I have felt trans-men since, I was young.
Around when I was 14, I was really
struggling to understand my self, with
this feeling of being male and all. I thought
I was going crazy after standing up for someone
whom was LGBT and these bullies were now verbally
attacking me...later that night I snapped and attempted
suicide, luckily it was high tide. I still kept it in and pushed
on. Finally in my twenties I could no longer hold it in. I came out
to my mother with tears running down my face. I'm an only child so
it's still hard for her. I mean she's going to be the big 50!
I feel bad, I mean at first she was all like well maybe your confused.
I explain no I'm not confused.

One of the first things I did was change my name, my former
name drove me crazy. I knew with that old name I would not pass
at all. I have lived and identified as make since 2007, recently in 2015
I started T, been on that for a total of a month and 12 days. I have noticed
some changes within the first week that I really feel have allowed me
assistance and remaining calm and managing my anger.

I remember back before I came out people would call me
it, and dyke and stuff like that. People never thought to ask.
I mean in my case it's not about the sexuality part, for me
more of gender Identity.

My bosses are pretty chill about it
and as long as I do my job, they are happy.
My bosses make sure to use the right pronouns
so as not to confuse our clients.

As for how I found this site good ale google has
never steered me wrong, that's how I found this
website full of great people.

Hi Tatsuo and welcome to the forum.  I saw your earlier post in another thread and you're already off to a great start in sharing your experience and wisdom.  I find it pretty interesting that starting T helped you remain calm and control anger when I had exactly the same experience by drastically lowering T and starting E.  There goes my theory that part of my effect was simply lowering  aggression from high T.  LOL

Thanks for responding and I have to say that T and E will never
effect everyone the same as everyone's body is unique. In my case
I have growth hormone deficiency so in this case it might allow me
some small growing in height, where in 90% of the transmens out
there it will not. They have went through all stages of puberty I did
not. So my situation is kind of unknown in that factor I'm excited that
I grew in height recently. I hated being short and not able to reach things
tall people reach on a daily basis with out problem.

Thanks again everyone!
I love it, when I find people
from chat on here as well!
I think a lot of people in the chat
may not be aware of this forum.
I intend to change that.

Truth be told I have been hard at work, Jamie
trying to get others on here as this area is more
helpful for me then chat.
