Hi all, how is it going.
Okay so here is my introduction: I'm a full body male and I hope to FINALY start my transition to mtf. I'm 25 years old from Colorado, I've know I was trans since high school and I briefly started the transition process when I was 19.
Obviously back then I had no money/support I had to quit because I didn't even have the money to pay for therapy every month.
since then I've more or less known I had a female persona but I've been 'putting it off' because I told myself I could live in a male body. Well I've been trying to live in a male body despite knowing I was trans for five years and it ain't working out so well. lol ::)
So I have no question on being trans I just wasn't sure whether I wanted to actually transition.
really I just never had the money to start (and I still kind of don't)
More or less I am scared of it. The process just seems so hard and painful to me. But the pain of living in a male body is starting to out way that pain.
However I've always known I was really a girl, I've known really since puberty. I'm not confused I just don't really know how to start.

Work on getting a gender therapist that can help you work out what it is you need to move forward on your path.
Many insurance companies are now removing the exclusion of transgender care.
Safe passage on your path
