I LIVE! I haven't been on EC is such a long while. I never made a grand going-away gesture of sorts, I just got busy and don't seem to need EC quite as much as I used to. I made this account the summer before my freshman year of college, and this fall I'll be starting my senior year. I came here for advice regarding my transgender identity, and I found so much more than I could have ever hoped for (as I'm sure you all have grown to know what that means first hand). Right now I'm three years into my transition to male; I've been on testosterone for two years and I'm one year post-op from top/chest surgery. I'm so much happier than I thought I ever could be, and my experience on EC really did get set the gears in motion for overcoming my severe, (then) undiagnosed & untreated depression. I owe so many people here my life, and the least I can do in return is to offer the same to all of you. So, this is just a HELLO THERE! to those who joined after I left and a HELLO, AGAIN! to those who may remember me. -Miles P.S. I'm totally up for any questions, public or private, about anything trans* related, so don't feel shy to ask away.
