July 15, 1990 my mom gave birth to a baby boy in the form a baby girl, my journey started there and has been one heck of a ride since.

 

I was a happy kid with the exception of a taste of self hate, I knew i cared about others, i knew i had everything that i could ever want, but i was so unhappy on the inside and being just a small child at the age of six i knew something was wrong, but how do you tell anyone whats going on in your head when you're not sure what it is yourself...

​

Years went by and i tried harder and harder to be some kind of "normal", looking for something that i could accept myself as, nothing seemed right.

 

 for years i lived as a lesbian and even in those years i was the happiest and most miserable i had ever been, i started to hate people around me, i became jealous and angry at everything, i didn't even recognize myself.

​

I turned my back on God, i turned my back on family, I turned my back on myself, i just wanted to end it, i wanted to stop suffering, i wanted to stop worrying my mom, and most of all i just to start over.

​

So there i was on the edge of death, ready to just end it all and in that moment the girl that stepped into my life, that i tried so hard to push away, saved me..

​

hating so much to see me suffer she began helping me research and figure things out, finally we came to the conclusion that i am transgender.

​

Just having something so right to call myself, a weight i never knew could, lifted off of my shoulders.

 

 i now knew i was going to get to be who i was born to be

​

The struggle of finding myself will never be completely over and everyday is a new adventure, i had to learn how to stop giving up on myself and for what i believe, and as cliche as it sounds.. 

​

One day it will get better..
