question from a stranger

Someone e-mailed me through livejournal asking about hormones and I was unable to write them back at the WebTV address they provided. So if you happen to be reading this, here's my reply:

Hi,

Personally I just read everything I could get my hands
on on the internet about hormones, including the harry
benjamin standards of care and personal folks'
accounts on what they went through. Then I found a
gender therapist in my city and started going, to help
me work through any questions and to also get a letter
to take to a doctor (a requirement for most places).

There are several lists of resources of therapists and
hormone doctors around the country, so hopefully you
could find someone after a few google searches. If
you have more specific questions, I'm willing to share
my experiences with everything.

Good luck!

Ray, this is completely off topic, but I watched Buffy today for the first time ever, and I was surprised to see your LJ icon! On my tv! It was very weird. :-)
