Reply To: Hi All, I have been inactive for a while and thought to reintroduce myself.

Hello DeeAnn,

Thank you for the warm welcome. It is great to be a part of TGH. I do feel less isolated now since I have joined. It is really wonderful to know that I am not alone anymore and there are many other ladies that  understand.

Your are right I am most fortunate to have a very supportive therapist who works with transgender people. That is a blessing.

And you are right, I am thinking rather soberly about the decisions that I need to make. It is certainly not easy and rightly so. I know that I need to do something to change the way I have been living (surviving), because one cannot keep repeating the same thing, doing it in the same way and expecting things to change on their own. (I believe it may have been Einstein who said something like this.)

I am here to learn; make friends and share.

Shena
