Hello:
While my wife, a few transformation artists, and a handful of retail workers and strangers know of my transgender nature, I am afraid I am heading down a path obscured by the dreaded "Pink Fog" and I need a reality check before I potentially ruin my life. I want to come out. I want to start HRT. I want to transition. I did therapy several years ago and stopped when the therapist offered to write me a letter for HRT. I was convinced I was a crossdresser at that time.
Before I do something stupid, I could really use some true horror stories about transitioning gone bad. The losses, the problems, and the regrets. As terrible as this probably sounds to all of you, I need this to see whether I am overlooking the emotional and social costs of this possible path.
I apologize in advance if this request offends any of you.
