    Hi guys, nice to meet you all

    I've basically joined to gain the confidence I need to finally come out. I'm struggling to do it at the moment and living as the wrong gender is proving increasingly difficult. This seems like a good place to do it after browsing the forum for a while!

    See you all around :thumbsup:

    Hello and welcome :slight_smile:

    Take part... ask questions... people like to help


    (&&&)


    You could look up a few threads in the gender idendity and expression section...

    You might have a look at this:
    Resources

    Some people come out in a letter, there are letters on EC...

    Some people advise to have some kind of support network in place before coming out...

    here are some resources for the uk:
    http://emptyclosets.com/forum/gender-identity-expression/167492-any-advice.html#2

    after 10 postings you can chat with others via wall messages, after 14 days you can apply for full membership and join the chat and exchange private messages.

    and well you could ask questions and open further threads of your own.


    Again, welcome.

    hugs
