Heya everyone :D I'm Killian, 20 years old, and live in Wisconsin, land of many wonderful cheeses. For at least 8-10 years, I have had an overwhelming desire to be a woman, having no wish to be a man or remain being one. Unfortunately, doing anything noticeable seemed so far out of the question, losing my masculinity seemed to be only a dream. I was never one to want attention, usually preferring to stay mostly hidden. I'm surprised it took this long for me to grow so intolerant of ignoring who I am.
I've started coming out to people close to me (only my mother so far, but it is a start). I have been trying in vain to find a therapist I can go to to discuss my situation and potentially starting hormone therapy. I own no clothing or supplies for my true gender, and have no idea where to begin on anything. I have not decided on my new name yet. I joined this site because I want to talk with people in similar situations. I'm done hiding in the shadows.
Thank you for listening, I hope to be a big part of the community.
