    So yeah I have been rather depressed for a week or so but today I got myself out of that rut, I didn't come out to anyone but by the end of this week or the week after I will be out.

    So what happened was that I called a gay and lesbian helpline because I was about to mental and I started talking to them and I got pretty comfortable talking to them and I was asking do you want us to contact your school about your gender issues, I answered yes so they contacted my school and basically said one person at school has these feelings and wants to transition at school. So basically on Friday I am going up to the office to say I am that person and then hopefully that gets the ball rolling.

    I am soo stoked right now.

    Hi there! Glad you called the help line and that they were able to really help you. It seems that help lines aren't called often enough, even though they can make a difference.

    Hope all goes well for you on Friday. Let us know how it goes.
     
  4. Awesome! Do keep us in the loop.

    I will be sure to keep you all in the loop.
