Title: I'm at the very beginning
Post by: hopeful on January 09, 2016, 05:32:44 PM
Hello all. Here's me. I have a story, although I'll leave out the heavy stuff for now. I'm about 90% sure I'm transgender and am here just to talk as much about it all and absorb as much as I can, as well as helping in any way I can.

I'm 27, male, have my first appointment with a doctor this Tuesday to begin talking with professionals about my issues with my gender identity. I've repressed all my feeling about it until now so it's all very daunting, scary and overwhelming :(

Well, I suppose that's the short of it.
Love to you all x

Hi Hopeful,

Welcome. Lots of great folks here. Reading and asking questions of all these people who have the experience is very helpful.

I see you have a doctors appointment. Is that a gender therapist, or therapist. I think they really help one to organize thoughts and feelings and help to sort through things easier and faster.

Enjoy your time here.

With warmth,

Joanna
