Hello World!

[Olivia47]

Hi everyone! I'm Olivia. I've listed myself as questioning since although I know that I definitely don't identify with my birth-assigned gender (male) and right now feel like "she" and "her" are the pronouns that most accurately describe me, I feel further self-discovery and self-understanding is needed before I can be sure . Nevertheless, I feel myself tending in that direction as I begin express myself more and more. Anyway, I'm tired of repressing myself and I just wanted to say to somebody, "Here I am!" So, it's wonderful to be here and whatever happens, I truly am excited by the prospect of becoming who I am.

Welcome. I'm so glad you found us. There are some amazing people here who will give you honest, loving answers to any of your question. In regard to questioning - there is a great book you can great on Amazon for about $15 - that is a gender identity workbook that guides YOU to exploring and figuring out YOU. It's by Dara - Fox-Huffman and if I recall, it's called Gender Identity.

Hugs,

Heather

Welcome aboard, Olivia!  

 

I'm also relatively new here, and also questioning, not knowing where I'll end up. Self-discovery never stops! It, and self-understanding is a long road, but it seems like you have already reached self-acceptance, which is huge.

 

This is a wonderful forum full of wonderful people!

Welcome Olivia.  When i joined this site i found that i wasn't alone.  That certainly helped.  It was suggested that i see a therapist.  I did and even years later i appreciate the revelations that came with therapy.  

Enjoy your journey!

 

Hugs,
