My name is Andrew but I go by Drew. I'm 23 years old and I live in Dallas, Texas. I'm a Transman, I've been on Testosterone for 1 year and 6 months.
I've lived a very privileged life and it's been a tough road to get to this point. There are not that many transmen where I live that openly talk about who they are or even feel comfortable in their own skin. I've received a lot of support and so many look up to me but I don't get why. It gets tiring having to be the role model when I don't even know where my life is taking me sometimes. It seems like all my life I've had to be the tough one and deal with things on my own.
I understand that it all takes time and patience but sometimes it feels like I'm drowning...
I've never been all that great at talking to people... so I apologize if I don't make sense, if I got too deep or offended anyone... It's been a tough day... More than anything I come on here to find support..
Warm welcome to Susan's Drew

Welcome to the community! Happy to hear you have been able to be your real self and continue going forward.
off-topic: When I read "hello c:" I thought "bad command or file name" as in "format c:" or "dir c:\"
