Hi,
I?m in the very early stages of transitioning, having just come out to my family.
Unsurprisingly, my wife is very angry at the moment and my children are struggling, although trying to be supportive. I have a 20 year old son and 18 year old daughter.
I have known I?m trans since I was very young, but have tried to live up to society?s norms, but can?t keep living a lie anymore. I?m now 45 and have a referral to GIC, but am looking to go the private route.
I know that this is going to be hard, but I know that this is the right route for me. It doesn?t stop me feeling incredibly guilty and sad for my family.
If anyone has any advice or support, I?m really open to any ideas.
I?m based in Southampton, England.
Natalie
