Ok, i honestly could not find an introduction forum so imposting it here.

My name is Raquel im transgender m to f but i identfiy as female. I live in San Francisco, California and i actually went in reverse. I got my name legally changed first (which was probably bad to do cause now its causing problems with my ID and Birth Certificate but oh well). I have not started taking hormones yet im waiting on my doctors approval but i lives two years of my life as a female before my epilepsy got out of control. Now that it is under control again i have started reliving my life as a female. All my instructors at school are aware my job everywhere, i dont hide it. At times it can be very dangerous for me especially the area i live in. But i wanted to reach out more. I am doing a paper for one of my classes on Transgender Issues called "Transgender "A Look Inside" and i happened to be doing a google search for more information around the world and I found this forum, needless to say helpful forums regarding transgender have been difficult to come by so i signed up, YES im looking for support and to help support others.

Hope to talk to you all soon.
/hugs
Raquel
