Title: Starting to Embrace My True Self
Post by: Neselleept on May 29, 2025, 02:30:50 AM
Hi everyone 💕
My name is Linh, I'm 29 and from United States. I've been crossdressing on and off since I was a teenager, always in secret, always with guilt. For a long time I thought it was "just a phase" or something I had to hide.
But over the past year, I've started to explore that side of me more deeply. And the more I let her out, the more I realize... this isn't just about clothes. This is about who I really am inside.
I'm not sure yet where this journey will take me, but I know I'm no longer alone. I'm so happy to have found this space and hope to connect with others on this path 💖
Thanks for reading

Hello Linh and it sounds as if you've already found we're an empathic community. Your story is so similar to that of many others here you'll find lots of common ground! All of us make a journey from suspecting our gender identity isn't a good match for the one we've been brought up in, to accepting our gender identity is different. Achieving that is in itself a massive step and you've done it, so congratulations. Where the rest of your journey takes you will take time to become clear, but once you've reached the acceptance you have done, it will be much easier. So welcome to Susan's!

I am guessing the "h" is silent in your name, Like "Niamh", the Irish name (pronounced "Neeve" for whatever odd reason).

Welcome to the site, sweetie. There are a lot of wonderful people here to help you through this and you are right. It's about who you are.

Who you are is someone with vast, untapped reserves of courage. That's evidenced by joining this site. Wherever your journey will take you... it will be one heck of a ride.

*massive hugs*

And Alana is someone very special. She has gone through a lot of stuff, to test her character. And come out the other side stronger and more confident. Listen to this girl. She knows how you feel. :)
