Title: Hey everyone!
Post by: Van on July 30, 2018, 12:15:16 PM
Hello, I'm Van. I'm a trans guy in my mid-late teens. I've looked around this site before, but I figured I'd make an account to meet some other people like me. I've known I was transgender for roughly three or so years, and have struggled with dysphoria since I was 4-5. I look forward to being a part of this community!

Hi Van!  Welcome to Susan's Place!  I'm Jessica.
I'm so glad you have decided join us.
If you haven't already, a good step for you would be to seek out counseling with a gender therapist.  They can be of great help in finding the best route in finding yourself.

I see your new here, so I'll post some links that may help you get better acquainted with the site. Pay attention to the site rules they can be of great help and don't forget the link highlighted red.  It has answers to questions that are commonly asked.  Then join in on a topic you find interesting and learn and share.
