I have a few questions to ask. I went to a doctor's appointment today and asked if I can go to therapy. My doctor said she has a therapist she thinks will be good for me.

Hello everyone, I am trying to come to grips with who I am. I was born male but have always had conflict with my gender, and am trying to come to grips with myself.

I'm currently entering the 10th grade and I'm on the boys basketball team (I'm FTM) and I want to start my list of schools I'm interested in going to now. I'm working on getting better at basketball so coaches and scouts and begin to recruit me. I'm only looking at Division 1 one schools that are small and not so popular.

i'm going to be 15 soon and i barely have any social life. since i'm ftm i find it harder for me to make friends. i really find it unhealthy for me to be sitting home all day and not being around being around people my age having fun. i'm most likely going to be granted my school transfer to a different school and i'm starting hormones in late september to early october. i'm so bored with watching TV and surfing the web all the time. my eating patterns have changed a little bit too. i also have trouble sleeping. i'm becoming somewhat lazy. i don't know if i'll make any good friends if i get in -
