    A friend reffered me to this site... Well, about 10 months ago I snapped and over 15 years of repressed feelings and memories rushed over me in a lovely emotional break-down. I finally figured out why I had been so unhappy for so long and I have started re-evaluating my life. I am transgender. Born female, but have never felt like I was and spent most of my teenage years and adult years repressing it. I don't plan on surgeries etc. at the moment. I just came out to a few people. Lost someone I thought was a friend in the process and right now feel lost, confused and stuck. Not sure were to go from here...

    Hey, im sure things will get better. Losing a friend, I know is hard, but don't sweat it to much. Friends come and go, so don't worry about it to much. This site will surely help. :slight_smile:

    Hi,
    I think I am the newest one here, (about 10 minutes.) Trust me that the person you lost was not a friend, just a long term acquaintance. If it makes you feel better, you are about 33 years ahead of me. Think of all the life that you get to enjoy that I had to endure.
