Um... Hey guys... I'm new to the site and I'm having some problems and I need people to talk too, if you want to know what I'm having problems with please ask. I'm a younger person who is planning on becoming a female...

Hi Amber 

Welcome to Susan's. You've come to the right place 

Although I'm 30 years your senior, there are many folks in your age group here. Everyone has problems, we'll all try to help as best as possible.

So is everyone here a... um transgender? I'm kind of confused on what that means right now, lol. Thanks for welcoming me

Most are in various stages of transgendering, from just beginning to fully completed. Some folks are significant others (supportive friends and family members). There is a wide scope of folks here 

Well thanks to you I'm already feeling a little more welcomed. I'm going to go to sleep it's 1:14 in the morning g'night talk to you later today.   almost forgot can you pm me how to put an avatar up pls! Thanks.^^

Hi Amber,

Welcome to our little family. Over 2500 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion.

Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams.  Ask questions and seek answers. Give and receive advice.

But remember we are family here, your family now. And it is always nice to have another sister.

Hi Amber,
Don't worry about being confused, a lot of us are or were or something. As Virginia said there are alot of people here from all levels of transition, and from all around the world. Guess what? YOU are no longer alone, 'cos we support each other.

BTW you cannot post an avatar until 15 posts. It's mentioned in the rules that Janet forwarded.

Have a good sleep and in the morning you will get some suprise responses


Cindy

-O_O- Oh my gosh I completely forgot about that, I was just excited to talk to people that could help me. ^///^ Sorry, thanks Cindy and Janet I'm feeling more and more welcomed every post

Hey Amber! Welcome to Susans. I think we're all a little confused from time to time, but thats why there's all these beautiful people here to help. Hope to see you around! 

Ahhh thanks this is so AWESOME! You guys have no idea how much I've needed to talk to people who understood. This is... I don't know it's just amazing and I'm uber excited now lol.

Hi Amber.

Just relax and read what others have posted.  Jump in when you're ready.

There are a lot of us here in various stages and with various needs and problems and desires.  Roam around a little until you find the area that suits you.

Welcome.

Welcome, darlin'.

*hugs*

hello sweetie! just open up.. we are here as your friends. just talk about it and im sure you can get a lot of help from all the members of this site..

Hey Amber!

As the others here have already said, welcome!  You are among friends now.

Confusion is a normal thing about this condition.  Information can be hard to come by.  Support is virtually non-existent depending on where you live.

Susan's place is more than just a forum, though there is quite a bit of activity as you may know.  But also our wiki is large, detailed and we strive to keep it current.  If you are having questions of whatever nature, the wiki may have an insight to what you are seeking.

Also the family here on the forums are a diverse lot (that's fer sure!), and have an opinion or advice on just about any subject you can mention.

So if you have a question, just put it out there and ask it.  You probably have several questions.  Don't be embarrassed, nothing embarrasses us, hon.  So what I think I was getting to was this.

Just ask all your questions instead of having us pull them out of you.  It'll go much faster that way.

Also check out the forums.  Very likely your question(s) may have already been asked.

Take care, and hope to talk to you soon!

-Sandy

Same here but im 32... Were all friends here

one big happy family

Hi Amber and welcome!   

Seconding what Sandy said.  Best to get your questions out rather than have us drag them out of you one by one. 

There's lots of info around and if you can't find what you're looking for, people are all pretty friendly and willing to help.  You're definitely in the right place. 

Welcome!  Asking questions is the best way to find answers, so ask away!  Just talking to people on here will help you figure out where you stand.  Good luck to you! 

wow... you guys are the biggest open minded group I've ever met, and I'm glad my girlfriend found this place for me. I love the fact that your all so willing to help... I'm going to be posting a new topic in the thread "introduce yourself" or introduction or whatever that thread is called lol, hope to see you there.

There is no such thing as a dumb question, maybe a dumb answer, but never a dumb question.
