Hello everyone,
At the beginning of this year I finally decided I couldn't take living the lie of being male anymore, and for the second time in my life I am now on the path to transition (mtf), although I've always known I was female since my first memories. I'm in my early 40s now and single again, and I just can't handle not being true to myself anymore. However I'm not depressed, I've already gone through all the sadness, and now I'm terribly excited about the future.
My goal is to fully transition, with HRT, SRS, and perhaps FFS, but it will be at least 6-9 months before I can start to see a specialist. But I have a plan and am working on it.
Friendship is my biggest reason for joining this forum, even though I have lots of questions, I really just want to meet other ladies in a similar situation and know what I'm going through is normal, and also be able to have a laugh about life.
Thank you all :)

There is a mountain of information, resources and friendship waiting for you here, you just need to jump in and start talking.
Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs

Hello Dear Ms. (GGM) OBrien,
(Boy, what a title) I feel as though I'm addressing Royalty.
Point of post. I suppose there will be a party for 8,000?? Yes?? :laugh: ;D
Once again congratulation
Huggs

Hello!
You seem to be in a good starting place and approaching transitioning with a smile really does help. Your organisation sounds good and remember every step, however small, is still progress :)
Keep the happy thoughts and keep us updated! All the best,
X
Hi guapa, it's nice to meet you! Make yourself comfortable and grab some snacks! See you around the site, hugs Devlyn
Hiya Guapa;
Welcome to the site. I have felt the same and very excited too. It never seems to be as straightforward as it seems and I have come to accept the zigzagging that I do. Mind you, I have a partner and family so it isn't just about me and it takes work to bring everyone along. Best of luck to you and I hope that things go smoothly for you and if there are a few twists on the way, then remember that we are all here and probably someone will have the right words for you when you need them most.
Take care and look forward to seeing you on the boards.
Welcome to Susan's, guapa
Hey, hey, good looking,
Whatcha got cooking?
Thank you all for the welcome and lovely words. Hope to chat to you all later.
