I finally decided to join the forum instead of just reading everybody else's posts and thought I might do an introduction...
My name is Eli (middle names James) and I'm FtM. I'm currently on hormone blockers and will be starting T this spring. I'm a little young so I can't get top surgery for a couple years (until i'm 18), but I really want surgery. I ran across this forum a year ago after figuring out I'm trans and have found it really helpful and informative, because many people have similar questions as I do and have found really good answers

Hi Eli,

Welcome to our little family. Over 4300 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 brother.

Welcome Eli! You'll feel at home here in no time at all! This place is very very helpful, indeed. Don't know what I'd do without it. Anyway, welcome to the family.

You have come to the right place dude. We have a very large FTM comunity here and many of the guys are younger dudes like yourself. We are a second family ready made for any trans person who wants us.

Anyways jump in, join a few conversations let us get too know you a bit.

Welcome to the site Eli 

That's awesome that you have a plan set and are close to getting on T. Look forward to seeing you around the forum

Hi Eli

welcome to the forum.
I'm pretty sure I can't help you with some tips but the least I can do is to take care that you're feeling at home with some nice words.
Just counting  the months off and you on T.
a new life can start.

hugs

Hi, Eli:

There are plenty of transguys like you here, and many of them are young too.  They are very smart and very cool.  You'll like them.  Just be yourself.  You are among friends.  This is one place where you can really be you.  You're among friends and family here.
