Hi. My name is Chrissy and I am a transitioning male to female. I found Susan's Place and it looks like you all are a great family and the site and you appear to be a great resource; so I am happy to be here.

It has been a long journey for me, and I am still not there. With your support I hope I will get the courage to meet with a therapist and doctor soon to start HRT. I definitely feel fem but don't look so fem now. Hopefully, HRT will assist with that.

If anybody can help me understand the process and what to expect, that would be awesome.

Hi Chrissy ,

Welcome to our little family. Over 8278 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 and welcome, Chrissy . How it all works depends a bit on which country you're in, so if you tell us that, I'm sure we can answer your questions (though there's loads of good info also lying around on this site from previous topics).

What do you want to know?

Thx Padma, I start looking over the site. I am in Colorado so I just checking in to see if I have to go to a counselor before a doctor for HRT. Trying to make it a simple for me as possible. Also, I was curious what kind of changes to expect of the first few months, so I can be ready for them...

Hi Chrissy from Colorado, I'm from Boston. We're glad you found the site! You should find plenty of information here, and lots of friends, too. Hugs, Devlyn

Hi All,

Thank everyone for their support. Progress is going well. Ms. Obrien, I lost your email. Please contact me.

Hi Chrissy - Welcome!!!  I'm new too (mtf) - have no idea what to expect...  But first stop was been a gender therapist to help me sort it out.  Sounds like you're off to a good start.  How's it going since your original post?  Keep posting, and enjoy some peace along the way - Holly
