Hello there
I'm new to the community and thought I should introduce myself.
My name is Lindsay -- at least, that is what I am going by now -- and I'm a pre-op mtf who has only come out to a few people, no one in my family but just a few friends. I'm still living as a male, regrettably, and I am still in college, but I am hoping to start transitioning sometime soon. I am currently talking to a counselor at school, but I'm trying to do more on my own to find myself and realize my complete being.
I've been feeling this way for 6 years now -- i'm almost 19, but yes I've been feeling this different since 13 -- and it's only been in the past few years that I've begun to express my feelings to a few people, and they've been my emotional backbone for me as of late, as I've felt more and more like the person I want to become. I'm not on any hormones or any kind of actual treatment yet, but its more of a mental/psychological aspect that I'm becoming more and more feminine, I just need to get my physical attributes to match that mindset now.
I don't know what else I should say, so I will just leave it at that and see where life takes me from here. =) i'm glad to be here, I feel like this is a step in the right direction for me.
