Hello, this is a message to a person that used this site back in 2018-19. I use to frequent this site under lots of names most I can't remember so there's no point in me say who I was in an attempt to remember me. I remember there was a post you made and it really changed my world. The post was talking about how you struggled with being trans and how it was stupid that anyone would ever think that we did it for attention.

At the time of the post I was rather depressed and was in a state of constantly hating myself. Your post spoke to me, which at the time was odd as I was cis. I managed to find out in 2020 that alot of my self issues were around me being trans and that I was unable to identify that. This was only made possible because the post you had made. This post had pushed a community straight Infront of my view. I hadn't really known anything about the community before the post. My research into the community and me making friends with some other trans people helped me realise how I really had felt about myself.

Through my first hand experience I can agree with you that it's a really harsh situation to be in. Non the less I would have never felt better about anything had I not transitioned. I wrote this to thank you really, you helped me find out who I was indirectly. I really hope that you are better now and that you no longer feel the same way as you once did.

You are valid, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

That, I believe is the correct one.

Woah, that's me! It's crazy to me how my silly little words can make such a huge difference to someone, but I'm so glad I was able to make a positive impact on someone.
Thank you for sharing this and reminding me of why I choose to be open about my journey and transition. I have always wanted to make a difference, however small it may be, whether it is just giving cis people a new perspective on what it means to be transgender or being able to help a trans person figure themselves out.

I am doing very well these days. I have basically done all that I've wanted with my medical transition - I'm over a year and a half on T and I'm one month post op from my top surgery. I feel so comfortable and confident in my body now and I hope that you have or will have experienced this feeling as well. :)

I came out over a year ago now. I'm currently on the waiting list to see the the gender clinic, over here the clinic waiting list can take up to 42months. Silly little words can help alot, after all they have really helped me out in ways I would have never expected.
