Hello, my name is Zoe ;D, i'm 19, high school dropout, and proud CS major in college living in the California Bay Area. I've just recently decided to stop living in the 'closet' and start my life journey as a MtF. I live with my mom, whom i have just told and have so far received unconditional love from. I live in boy 'mode', but I'm going to start changing that this year.
This is my first time on transgender forums sense I was much younger and still questioning. Been lurking here for a little while, and have found a lot of insight & courage through reading countless posts; for which I am eternally grateful for having been able to read.
I have so much I want to say, but i need to have something to talk about later! Hope to get to know you better :)
Welcome Zoe!
I love your id on susans.
Hi Zoe,
Welcome here!
Great to hear you're mom is so supportive :) I'm new myself (also transitioned during college) and after reading the forum for months I decided to register as well.
Good luck with your transition.
Hi Zoe
Welcome to Susan's and thank for posting such a lovely introduction.
I'm sure you will soon find your feet and make friends with people here. We are a varied bunch ranging from old dinosaurs, like me, who originally transitioned back in the 1960's and who have gone through the whole medical process many decades ago to others like yourself who are just starting out. The important thing is we are all here to help one another.
