Title: Hello!
Post by: Giovan on July 05, 2014, 03:25:43 PM
Hello there! I identify as a male pansexual; my biological sex is female and I've felt this way for years.. Starting at seven, when I was brave and blunt, but that didn't turn at very well.
Until recently, I've decided to be open and address these feelings. It's very stressful and hard with some friends, mostly family. I'm young yet and almost everything is hard at the moment to be totally honest. Right now, it feels like a battle to just try to start being comfortable and open with the other issues I have, regarding anxiety disorders. Any support or ears to listen are welcome and am I thankful for, a few true friends are happy for me coming to terms and are very supportive thankfully.
Back to basics though,
So.. Ah, yeah. My name is Giovanni. I was raised in a French-Italian household. I adore Zoology and it is my passion; need help with animals, I'm your guy.
I'm a bit cold and such, very jumpy, but someone reaching out and showing themselves friendly usually brings out my loving side; just gotta take a small step to befriend me, if you want to have conversation, etc. c:
I'm a very open individual, so any questions will be answered quickly and [sometimes too] bluntly.

That's about it.
For any curious, my first discussion about hormones and the like will be with my psychologist this upcoming week. Wish me luck. I might show my ugly mug sometime in the future!

Thank you everyone for the warm greetings. :)
And thank you for liking my name, haha. I got the idea from Italian family.
Though, I've gotten the "pokemon reminder" very often now. Personally, I think it's a funny and interesting touch.

*waves* Welcome fellow new person, just thought I'd post to wish you luck with your appointment *crosses fingers* and say that my inbox is always available when private messages activate for us. I would never dare equate experiences but I have anxiety issues too so will hopefully be able to understand. Wishing you the best. :)

Thank you for the welcome!

And thanks to you as well for the wishes of luck for me. I'll need it for tomorrow! I'm sure we'd get along fine either way, even if our issues/disorders aren't the same; anxiety is anxiety and an unpleasant experience.  Thank you for the assurance and warm welcome.
