I completely understand! I am 62 and am just beginning my journey, gender dysphoria doesnβt go away no matter how unacceptable it is to your family!!!! I used this excuse for a very long time! I truly regret taking soo long to get to this point (((((((((( hug π€)))))))) you are not alone!

Will:
Glad that you found us and I hope it will be a good experience for you!
I suspect that there are many here who can relate to what you said. Sorry that you family has the mindset that it does, but it is what it is. Before you transition, I hope that you are in a location that has a trans community. I think that will make all the difference in the world. That should probably be high on the list of criteria of where you might choose to live.
So, a few things...
Be sure to check out the F>M Forum and Chat Room.
Also, it's very helpful to complete your Profile page. It's a good way to provide some detail so others understand your journey and how things are going. It can also be updated at any time when something changes for you.
Hi there and I understand as I only started last week Friday and my family won't understand as they would tell me it is a "head" thing.
