Mandy:
Glad that you found us!
I see that you are from Ohio. I’m originally from Toledo. I left in 1990 when I was transferred to a plant that employer had in Illinois. I live in Joliet for 2 years and Corning, NY for 23 before retiring and relocating to the desert in Southern California.
Very happy that you are moving forward with your journey. Clearly it isn’t easy, but it is what we need to do.
I encourage you to complete your Profile page. You can update it at any time if something changes for you and it really helps other members to understand your situation.
If you would like to search for other members in your area, click on Social in the menu and then Member Directory.
Are you connected with the trans community in any way? Many derive a powerful sense of validation and camaraderie from support groups and social gatherings.
