I have been trans since I can remember but have only recently decided to go for it openly. I have zero support and had to leave home so basically starting a new. Want friends and support as this is pretty overwhelming right now and I am pretty lonely tbh. Anyway hii !
Bekka:
Glad that you found us!
Know that everyoneโs situation, while similar in a number of ways, may have some very distinct differences. So, what I can do is pass along some thoughts and suggestion and you will need to sort out what fits, whatโs possible, etc.
Since you live in a metropolitan area of several million people, I would think that there are some resources for transgender people. Social and/or support gatherings can be very helpful. Humans are social creatures, so being among our peers will almost always be helpful. The exchange of information and experiences is invaluable as well as the camaraderie between those who participate. In parallel, you may also search out Member Directory. Click on Social in the menu and then Member Directory. I would not be surprised if there are other members close by.
Also, I encourage you to complete your Profile page. It really helps other members to understand your situation better and may also reveal some common interests. Iโve had a number of conversations that started due to what someone noticed on my Profile page or what I saw on theirs.
Hi Bekka! You are not alone. Weโre here for you. When I began this journey, I only had two friends. One of them knew nothing about transgenderism.
Take your time, be kind to yourself.
peace,

Hi Natalie, take note we have all been there at some point in our lives. Go slow and take your time. This does not go away. Post your thoughts and questions here if you like. We love to show our sincere thoughts and experiences with others. Hugs, Jillleanne
Hey Bekka. ย ย So glad youโre here there is much support to be found here best regards. Toni
Hi Bekka
Wow ... I joined a day before you did, and still managed to miss your introductory post *note to self: must try harder*.
Being so new to the site I don't really feel qualified to welcome you, but I will anyway. Welcome!
I came out to my Mum and one of my sisters in August and was extremely fortunate in that both have been extremely supportive. However, there are others in my life who I would NEVER tell.
I hope that you're finding friends on here. You've found a supportive community. Reach out to it if you need to ๐
Hugs
