Hi, my name is Jaime, 26 MTF and have found my way here. ive been here before, looked through topics as guest. but have never been one for forums.
Alittle about me... hm. Like i said already MTF and 26, My birth name is Michael and Ive always been girl, even if it didn't show outwardly at an early age. i can remember being in elementary school wishing i would wake up one morning and id be the girl sitting next to me. >.< um. lets see, i "came out" to my parents when i was about 16ish. they took it kinda hard, esp my dad. my mom didn't take it as hard. it was defiantly something she needed to wrap her head around and get used to, but didn't take her as long as it has my father to get used to it. not quite sure if my father is really used to it yet or not. Hes a Jehovah's Witness, if that makes any sense.
When i was i guess 19 or so i guess, was about the time i started using makeup and dressing and going out in female mode recreationally, but still taking it all off before i came home, eventually i came out at work, working at Arbys at the time, to my friends there and started going to work in female mode there too by this time my father gave up pretty much trying to control things w/ me but forbid me to take any actual physical steps while still living under his roof. = /
so im up to maybe 23yrs old now =( getting old sucks. lol. life stayed fairly the same since, in fact the male things i retained at this point was well, my body, name, and identification that has M on it, bout it, ive been full time in my social work and home life since.
Im now happy to be away from my father, still w/ extended family atm, but away from him. =D lol. (really cant stand that man) I was able to legally change my name last year, both first and middle. Jaime Nicole =D name i had felt since middle school at least. This past January i started seeing a therapist in my not to distant area, who referred me to Mazzoni Center, in Philly, and am up to just starting HRT. Started Spiro last week and im going to try estrogen injections, start that next Tuesday when i go back to the doctors office to learn how to give myself the injections >.> (wtb anti-needle-fear pill too) <.<
but thats me, feel free to call me Silvr or Silvrnite(Online name mostly gaming) or Jaime. all of the above are fine.
