Hi everyone. My name is Nina (subject to change, lol, I'm just going with Nina for now). I've just recently discovered that I'm transgender MTF. When it clicked that I was really a woman, my whole life began to make sense
I don't really know how it didn't hit me sooner, I've wanted to crossdress for years, in fact, I do wear a lot of women's clothing, as a make. I've always felt drawn to women, and preferred them over men, and the last couple of years, I've been really unhappy for years, but I didn't really know why, I assumed it was because I never got the chance to wear make-up and look feminine, I never thought it could've been anything deeper.
Because I only found out recently, I have been researching constantly on seeing a gender specialist, coming out to friends and family, living life as a woman full time (something that really excites me), passing as a woman etc.
I feel like a do have some mild dysphoria, although I don't HATE being a male - it just makes me really unhappy, I can see myself being really happy as a woman, I just want to get the ball rolling with seeing a specialist, living as a woman, HRT etc. I know there's a long way to go, and unlike my cross dressing, I can't just sweep this under the carpet.

Hi Nina, I'm a MTF trans-woman from the UK. Seeing a gender specialist is a good idea. But there's lots of good advice and people to be found here [emoji5].
I do like the name Nina btw.
