Want to transition

I do not know why I have these feelings and desires to become female, I've had them for a very long time and want to do something about them, the feelings and desires have become so strong latlely, they seem to be consuming all of my thoughts, I always thought that becoming female would be very wonderful. Since I've thought about it and had the feelings and desires for so long, I know it is right for me and no that once it's done, there is no going back and know the surgery is permanent and it is what I so desired for so long, if I only had the finances, it would have already been done, every time I try to suppress these feelings and desires, they haunt me and re surface even stronger than before.

Since I was 13 years old I knew that I wanted to be a girl. I tried cross-dressing to alleviate some of my anxiety but my feelings ran so much deeper than creating an illusion. I desperately needed to express my feminine persona and true identity, but I was ashamed an confused and so I repressed these desires. My life has been a series of awkward attempts to take control of my sexuality, but I would always chicken out and say, "maybe tomorrow." Well, tomorrow never seems to come and I am left with an empty, achy feeling at my very core. I've tried all sorts of "fixes" but none of them worked. I became somewhat of a promiscuous type, hoping to find some level of fulfillment, This too never came to pass.

It was only recently that I sought out counseling and I finally admitted to a therapist what i had know for a very long time. It's too late for me, but friend, I strongly and urgently suggest that you seek out a qualified therapist and a supportive friend or two. I wish you well, darling.
