Title: Hi yall! 👋
Post by: lilAmethyst on February 06, 2026, 01:16:50 AM
  Hello! I like to go by Amethyst online but my name is Hailey. Im 23 and have been on hrt a little over a year. I live in the south. I was dealing with alot of health issues that got very debilitating but ive been making a great recovery recently and am doing great! I have a wonderful husband who has taken well care of me throughout everything, including my transition. I dont really have any friends or anyone to talk to, other than my husband, and struggle a bit with talking online. Hoping to chat and make posts with folks here!

  I love Hello Kitty! Electronic music! Crafts! Also love doing photography,  especially with film!

Hey Hailey,

I'm Charlotte😻 and I'm pleased to welcome you to Susan's Place!

Thank you for your introduction which I enjoyed reading. Firstly I'm glad to hear that you are making a recovery from your health issues and are already progressing on HRT.

In terms of friends I'm very similar to you, with not having any IRL friends. However here on Susan's friendship can certainly be experienced and I'm sure you will find similar over time.

From your hobbies I'm feeling a kinda kindered spirit! I'm Hello Kitty mad too! She is such a beacon of kindness and super cute with it. Electronic music is super cool too. Are there particular genres you like within electronic music? Again I love this too, though my focus is on dance music. I know there to be some keen photographers on here who you can chat to regarding this too.

I and the wider community on Susan's can't wait to get to know you more. Please rest assured you won't be judged here so can speak freely without worry.

Thank you so so much for the warm welcome! I really appreciate it alot! I will be sure to read through the resourcesyou have linked!

  You are sooo right about her being a beacon like that! She makes it feel like everything will be alright, and shes soo cute! I also love her bf Dear Daniel. I love anything to do with Hello Kitty and even like to watch some of her cartoons tbh.

    All genres of music I like but electronic is my favorite overall. I love old shcool dub-step like Skream. Like aphex twin, fat boy slim. Also love ambientand glitter pop! The ones I've loved the most recently are nightcore, brakecore,  and femcore, like the artistFem&M! I also like the bands Against Me, Primus, Edgar Wesser, Alligoto, Getto Boys,Jefferson Airplane, and Ezra Furman.

  I've never posted on a forum like this before,  so I am excited to learn! Sorry for any grammar issues I may have, not always the best at typing but I really try my best. Glad to meet ya Charlotte! And rhank you so so much again!!!
(I may have had to type this out more than once after accidentally loosing what I typed lol.)

No problems we are all about making our members feel welcome and comfortable. If you need anything you'll find that everyone on here staff and members alike are always happy to assist.

You're music taste is definitely up my street in a few places too. I have Fem&m on repeat often while driving! Love the breakcore / hyperpop energy. Hopefully you can share with us what you listen to if you wish. We have a thread to post what you're listening to on here 🙂

Regards grammar, there is an edit button once you have posted where you can correct afterwards. I use it all the time when I spot glaring errors!

Anyways I'm meant to be working, so catch you around!

Hiya Amethyst!!

A big welcome from me! I'm pretty new here myself. I can heartily recommend getting involved in the discussions. You'l find everyone on here is freindly and helpful and can offer you encouragement.

There are girls young and old (and somewhere in the middle) on here so don't be afraid of joining or starting threads.

I have been into electronica from the early days and was bang into House, drum n bass and techno (precurssers to dubstep) when I was your age.

There are a few of us into photography on here (me included) and there is a specific section for those that are. Feel free to join the discussion or post images if you like.

Have fun!

Welcome to Susan's, Amethyst! (or do you prefer Hailey? They're both lovely names)

I recognized 'Jefferson Airplane' in your intro. Grace Slick's vocals are astounding. As for the other musicians you mentioned? I'm old. That's my only excuse.

Enjoy, Girl!

Welcome to Susan's Place, Amethyst!

I'm so glad you found us and took the step to introduce yourself. I know speaking up online can feel intimidating, especially when you're not used to forums, but you did just fine.

A year into HRT while recovering from serious health issues takes real strength, and having a supportive partner through all of that matters more than people sometimes realize. You're navigating a lot, and this community is here for you whenever you need it - whether that's asking questions, sharing experiences, or just being around people who understand.

Your interests sound lovely! I'm a photographer too, though I focus more on digital photography using a Canon EOS 7D. There's something special about the intentionality of shooting film - the waiting, the patience, the tangible results. What kind of subjects do you like to photograph?

This is a good place to take things at your own pace. Post when you feel like it, read when you don't, and know that there are people here who care and understand what it's like to be navigating transition, especially in the south.

We're glad you're here. 🌸

With warmth and support,
—Susan 💜
