My first post here was not so much an introduction but more of a cry for help.
I'm Natalie, 19 years old from Texas, now back home. I lived for a year in Portland where my awful ex lives.
I started transition at 17 but I kind of always knew that I things weren't quite right with me. That in wasn't like the other boys. I was aware of gender identity disorder because I read articles online about it. On my 17th birthday I started HRT. Tomorrow is my 20th birthday and I'm fairly comfortable with who I am.
I don't intend to get srs, mostly because I'm scared and because I'm OK with my parts, don't love them but I tolerate it more than anything.
My ex wanted to get me implants but like an idiot I let him dictate the size and type. I ended up with huge stripper boobs that kill my back. It costs too much to reduce them so I'll live with it till I can afford to change them or maybe I'll learn to like them.
I'm grateful for the words of encouragement from everyone here.
If anyone has any questions about anything. I'm pretty open minded and I like to educate people.
