    I haven't posted anything like this, and I never know what to say for intros in general so...

    Im a 24 year old trans man. I have lived my whole life confused, feeling something in myself wasnt right or matching up. I didn't really have any sort of resources available or feel comfortable to talk to anyone about it, so as a result growing up has been kinda difficult and to say the least left me often feeling like I am not really a part of my own life.

    It wasnt until a few years ago that I had the people and resources placed in my life to help me better understand myself. I am still very much in the closet, and I am terrified to come out to anyone. I have really only come out to a handful of people.

    I am pretty much out to everyone as bi, but the trans thing is a lot harder. :lol:

    So I found this place trying to find a good community of people and hopefully make some friends!

    I love playing video games, drawing, writing (fanfics and own stuff), and role playing. I am hoping that one day I can go back to school to do something with video game design. :icon_bigg

    It is nice to meet you all!

    Hi, and welcome!

    This is a good place to discuss and also get to know yourself a little better. It's been very helpful to me.

    There is a great section for videogamers here, too. You should check that out when you get a chance. I don't do much gaming anymore (music takes all my free time), but I used to love Skyrim, Dragon's Dogma, Kingdoms of Amalur, etc.

    Welcome!

    Eh, don't worry about being awkward in your intro; most of us were, I think. Welcome to EC. :slight_smile:

    You draw and write, too? What kind of work do you do, if you don't mind me asking?

    hey everyone thanks for the kind welcomes I appreciate it a lot! I apologise that it took me so long to get back, I have been really under the weather and have not felt that much up to anything at all.

    Adray: Those are some of my favourite games! Do you make music?


    Xvision: What kind of games do you play? I like rpgs, horror, and platformers myself. not to mention chill out games like the sims and animal crossing haha.

    caldwell: I think I will definitly like it here, everyone seems very nice!

    ThatBorussenGuy: I write a lot of fantasy and I try my hand at horror stuff but I have trouble getting the plot going. And then i like to write drama and tearjerker fics. For drawing I do a lot of fan art (especially for oyasumi punpun) but also like to design characters and landscapes. Monsters and anthros are my favourite things to draw.
    What kind of stuff do you make?
