    I've been lurking around the forums for awhile just seeing what kind of advice I could find floating out there (google has led me here many a times!)
    I was hesitant to post and make an account because I was scared and it meant I had to accept what was going on, but here I am I suppose.

    I'm assigned male birth, but have always been fascinated with being female. As a kid I didn't think much of it, however, over time these feelings got worse and honestly have reached a point of being painful at times.

    Earlier this year I came out to a close friend and she has been helping me and I just recently told the rest of my close friends. My parents know, I kind of slipped out, but after how things went I decided to just keep them out of it right now.

    I think I'm genderfluid and seem to hang out on the female side of things more often, but I am still in the phase of questioning I suppose.

    Anyways thank you all for helping out as you have done so already!
