I had to select "other". When I started my transition, I had about the same amount of conflict with others as I had pre-transition. Now that I have grown older and more mature, there are few conflicts to speak of, if any.

I have experienced no conflict at all over my transition.  A little bit of internal conflict about whether I was ready to do this, but that's all.  I have been very lucky.

I have been remarkably lucky in my transition in that I have had almost no conflicts. There have been almost no issues at work, my children are accepting (as are most of my other relatives) and I haven't really lost any friends (in fact I have many more).  The only negative has been the lack of acceptance by an uncle and my step-mom.  I'm very thankful that my transition has gone so well.

Hi Stephanie!

If you're asking about "internal conflicts", then so far no, no conflicts. More a resolution of big conflicts with a sense of closure.

If your question is about conflicts with others... Well... No real conflicts per se, but my sister doesn't speak to me anymore (we barely spoke before, so it's not really a big change) and my mom started displaying a passive-aggressive silence which doesn't bother me much anymore, but when I think about it I find it saddening, but then I shrug my shoulders and think: "C'est la vie..." Besides, reactions from wife, kids, friends and co-workers have been nothing but extremely understanding and supportive, so I feel that the sum of reactions is largely positive.

Hugs, Sarah
