Amy: Hi! My name is Amy and I'm a forty-year-old transgendered person. I've been transitioning for about five years now, and it feels amazing to finally feel like myself.
I grew up in a small town where people didn't understand what it meant to be transgendered. I was always different, even as a child, but no one could quite put their finger on why. It wasn't until I was in my twenties that I realized what was going on and began to explore my identity.
I've been through a lot over the years - depression, anxiety, even self-harm at one point - but I finally feel like I'm in a good place now. Being able to express myself as the person I always knew I was has made all the difference.
I work as a therapist now, helping other transgendered people navigate their own journeys. It's incredibly fulfilling work and I feel lucky to be able to help others in the same way that so many people helped me along the way.
Overall, I'm just grateful for every day that I get to be myself and live my truth without fear or judgment.
