    I just don't know what to do. I am having trouble accepting my identity.

    I am moving to Korea so the "GP route" is not feasible at the moment.

    I could go private but the options I've seen are pricey.

    The main thing I guess I need help with is accepting myself.


    I am just finding it all so tough and overwhelming.

    Can anybody help me, in any way?

    I know how you feel. It was the same for me. Have you told anyone yet? If someone accepts you it might help you to accept yourself? Also try to imagine your life in the future as a guy and think, would it better if you were a woman? If yes then you know that's the way forward and it's what you've got to come to terms with. I wish you the best of luck

    I am afraid you need a therapist. Either where you live right now, or in Korea.

    Thanks, yeah it might help out if someone else tells me they accept me :slight_smile:

    In response to that question I am not sure, I am not sure if I am ready to transition. The whole thing is just so hard :frowning2:

    Mental health issues are hushed down and not spoken about in South Korean culture so getting a therapist out there is off the cards, except for maybe an online one but the repercussions of being found out are too high for my job.
