I'm currently a high school student up in Queensland, and have been looking for a forum to find other people to talk to about LGBT topics and share experiences, or just to chat about recent events, memes, etc. <BR /> <BR /> I've been experiencing gender dysphoria recently, for about 1 and 1/2 years, infact. I'm currently seeking help in the form of counsellors and hopefully some sort of official documentation to recognize my "transness". I am attempting to transition from male to female, and am looking for a place to express myself and talk with others.
