"We are One"
New to site and loving it
thanks for the people that i have meet so far in chat.
Feels so good to find something that makes me feel that im not alone.
To start off, ive always known that ive been different since i was a kid. Having a crappy step dad threw out my childhood made me suppress what i really felt inside. He would call me names like girl gay fag stuff like that it hurt because i knew i was not gay, but i knew i was a girl on the inside. At age 6 i realized this but really couldn't express how i felt, because it would be a really hard childhood. I 've had experiences with dressing as a girl threw out my childhood, and they were in secret. I finally grew up like any normal boy, but in the back of my mind i know that i was different. Just to fit in i learned to be a boy, and did boy things.
I remember laying in bed an night wishing i would wake up as a girl, course it never happen, wishful thinking. I eventually got married to a girl that i loved, then she left me for a stupid reason. The divorce gave me time to think about the type of person that i was. And now im trying to embrace what i have always felt my whole life, to be a girl.
Im seeking out any possible support group online and offline. Learning lots and hope to transition as soon as i can. Im far from HRT and SRS, but working on stuff. I know this is going to be a long road, but looking forward to whats to come.

Years ago I thought I was the only one who had this unique problem. Then I learned there were others like me. I followed some of the path they cut before me. Today, because of the internet you can join others who are on various portions of a journey. You can find understanding, empathy, help, and acceptance. PE is a great place to begin...

Me too, I woke up one morning in 2009 and lo and behold, I was physically and mentally a woman.
I had found true congruence.
Yes, it can happen.........
We here at Pinkessence are the " proof in the pudding."
It's real neat too, I can tell you.

Katelynn, welcome girlfriend!! I am quite new to this site myself, and there are no words to describe how much I have learned about myself and others, how much it has helped me in so many ways, how it has lit a fire to my transition. You just make yourself at home, don't be afraid to ask questions, and I am soooo glad you found us!!

I grew up in an abusive environment. I can relate, it takes time to fit the damage. I thought I worked it out. I was really just running. There is nothing like just letting go and being yourself. Wecome.
