I'm new here and i want to say hi to everyone ,

First of all i'm happy cause i found this forum , i'm a 17 years old boy and last month i started "be myself" , i started think about this problem from when i was only 7 years old , i always was attracted to girly stuffs and always in my mind something bothered me , the idea that my body "doesn't fit me" and i even got in depression because of this , i always get jealous wen i se a girl cause i want be like her , i want be a woman not a bulky man or something like that.

Last two weeks i told to my mom my secret that was my curse for 10 years , first time she thinks that this is just a faze or a bad joke but after she realized that this isn't a joke she started to sustain me a bit , but i need help from someone that know from what to start , how to "come out" to world , i need just a bit explanation about this.

Thanks for reading my story and if someone who did this before know , please help me  .

P.S: Sorry for my bad English , i'm from Romania .

Welcome to Susan's Place. One of the things that will help is if you can find a therapist trained to help transgender people. There will be a number of medical issues you will need to take care of and a doctor in your own country will be able to help you. Also if you can find it a local transgender group or gay/transgender group could help connect you to local resources. After you start that, it will be time to working on moving into your new role and informing the people around you about the changes that are to come. We have a Youth section where you can find others your age on the site but feel free to explore any area you find interesting or useful.
