First i want to say to everyone. I'm abbygail 21 years old (mtf) and  I'm new to this forum.

I'm currently pre-clinical path. Still on the waiting list to start but i live my life as female already. Don't get confused, it feels really great and all but i face difficulties in my social life. My social circle kint of collapsed since i showed my real identity to them. I do still have a job and go to school but on a few friends is all what i have left. My question to you is, what do or did you do to prevent social isolation or having  an empty feeling inside of you?

I would be happy to hear your answers

Oh, I'm so sorry.    Welcome to the forum; I hope things brighten up for you soon.

If there are transgender social groups or discussion/support groups in your area, that's a great place to start.  Most people find it reassuring to meet others in person who are in the same situation, and you might make some friends who understand what you're going through.  Online is nice, but in person is special in a different way, and also motivates you to get out of the house and be social.

Hey Abbygail,

Awesome that you are starting everything!

If you are afraid of isolation, going to support groups is a great way to meet people and be yourself.  Also, once you feel comfortable in your new identity and everything, you can go to some meet up groups in your area that appeal to you.  It's always fun to meet new people who are interested in similar things as you.  Lastly, susan's is a great community and a great way to bond with people who are in similar situations. 

Good luck on everything 🙂
