    Just recently started to confront the fact that I am Transsexual. I've been a pretty isolated person most of my life and shut off most of my feelings. Now that I'm facing it head on I sometimes wish that I had just stayed in that place of darkness so that I didn't have to feel the pain and the depression that I am faced with now. It's really hard, I was suicidal at times and I stopped myself by shutting my heart and mind off and now I'm having those thoughts again. It's really painful :tears: and scary and I feel so overwhelmed and lost.

    I'm sorry you're having such a rough time! I know that things might seem scary right now, but finding and accepting yourself is always a good thing even if it takes a while. Just know that you're not alone and that confronting fear is often an indication of personal progress.
