    Hello :slight_smile:

    I've been struggling to discover, accept and embrace myself for a while now (both gender and sexuality) and this is going really well.
    I'm bisexual but the box feels a bit like a cage so I could also call it fluid. I was born a female and my gender identity is mostly female most of the time but.. also not.
    It's hard to find a label to cover this intensely complicated matter :slight_smile:. And I'm not even sure if I want labels for myself as I've always been a bit allergic to them. I've written a very long story about how I feel in my gender and sexuality that has helped to sort things out a bit and I've also read many people's stories and eventually found this forum!
    I will maybe (partially) post some of my story here some time on the forum and I'd be very happy to make friends and talk to other people here.
    I'm 31 years old and from a small European country and that's about all I'm going to tell about myself for now :slight_smile:

    Okay honestly I found just enough courage to post this. I'm actually kind of scared to talk about myself and be here, but I just need some time I think. My head is a bit in chaos at the moment and I have a headache from thinking too much.

    Hi. :3 I really get the thing about being scared to post things, I get very worried about being ignored. I also understand the chaotic mind. Nice to meet you :3

    Hey TwoSocks:slight_smile:
    You don't have to be scared at all.
    I haven't been on this forum for very long and have also had a hard time recently figuring out what is going on in my head.

    People are really nice here and it's really interesting to see what other people are experiencing:slight_smile:

    **I'm also quite terrified to talk about myself to people that I hardly even know.
    But people here show you not to be afraid of it. So much respect and kindness, you'll see..:slight_smile:

    Thank you all so much <3
    I've already been reading so many stories on here and it's comforting and reassuring being able to relate to some other people's thoughts and feelings. I've been writing a few things.. I'm thinking about posting something, maybe tomorrow. :slight_smile:
