I avoided this place because the old site I went too wasn't supportive and kept saying Susan's Place was full of "Unpassable Huns" and offered more advise on "How to be happy with your penis." instead of "How to get SRS."
Very unsupportive and I'd rather die than live a life with a penis. I got an even bigger drive to get SRS when my depression worsened trying to get used to the idea of being a woman with "something extra", and googled SRS and found an alarming number of SRS resources here. Not to mention success stories sweeter than any romance I've ever read. But I remembered what my old site (420Chan) said about this place...
Eventually I caved, glad I did I've found this is a positive environment based on helping build ourselves up into the people we're meant to be as opposed to moping and groaning. Yes Gender Dysphoria depressed us, but we need to defeat Dysphoria, and not let it call the shots. I am a woman and I want to be happy damn it! So I joined Susan's.
