    So, I came out to my mom about 5 weeks ago, and have been in Therapy for about 5 weeks too.

    I just recently cut my hair short or a medium boys length, and I ordered a binder online and it should get here in the next week or so.
    No one knows I'm Transgendered but a few close friends, but once I get a binder I think it will kind of be weird for some people to see me not wearing a sweatshirt and just a shirt. I mean, people have seen me without a sweatshirt on, but it's kind of obvious to knowing I'm female with it off. I do start Gym soon again too, which means I'll have to use the girls locker room, but with my short hair, and getting a binder, I think some people might be uncomfortable and I'm not comfortable in the female changing rooms either.

    I'm still called in Female pronouns, and my birth name, but I want to change that by the end of the year and be fully out so when I start high school I can kind of be called by my male preferred name, and male pronouns.
    I know I should talk this over with my Therapist, but I was wondering if anyone can give me any information on coming out as Trans, and how to get a lot of people to know, and how I can get the school system to call me by the male name I want, and male pronouns.
    and yeah, stuff like that.
