Hi'
I am Jennifer from Adelaide in South Australia and have finally taken the all important step of coming to terms with my lifelong feelings and have taken the road of HRT to fulfil my deep down desire of becoming who I really am.
I have seen Dr Lyons in Adelaide and he has referred me to Dr Tonnia Mezzini for treatment.
I had my fist visit with her yesterday and I got my first script and I was so emotional that I actually cried in front of her. Finally I was made to feel that "Jenny" is real and I am not a freak or deviant. For the first time in my life I was made to feel normal and not judged.
When I finally returned to my car again I just could not stop my tears. After nearly 58 years I am being listened to. Now the problem starts with the family, in order to become me I may run the risk of destroying my family in the proses as they will not be supportive I am sure. But maybe in time and gently I can make them understand.
I am on Susans place to find frinds in Adelaide and surroundings as I am sure in need of likeminded girls at time. At the moment I don't have the  chance as yet to dress as I desire because of family. I have been on hormons for the past 5 month but not officially and only on a very low dose but I can not believe how wonderful it has already made me feel so I know its the right thing to do.
Please if they are any girl who can be a willing ear or giving me advice that would be soooooooo appreciated.

Welcome Jenny,
We are what we are and coming to terms with that can be challenging. I always say if we were all bent the same direction, it would be a very boring world!
Love & Peace,
Jin & Eve

Hello there, and welcome.

Many Many thanks for all who have replied to my introduction, it's so nice to have a place to be open and honest and know others will understand.
