Apr 21, 07 - 11:50 PM 		God,Have Mercy On Me!! Fellow brothers,Am I HOPELESS? I think so.Please HELP! Have Pity on me!

To all my fellow FTM brothers in this bulletin board,

Please help me!Please give me advice,talk to me,help me!Please!I am in the depths of despair,literally speaking.First of all,I want to introduce myself.I am an FTM who was born and who resides in the Philippines,a third-world country situated in Southeast Asia.My problem is I just don't know where to turn to,whom to ask for help.I am in much pain right now.I just need someone,somewhere who will be willing to listen,who will be willing to help.I don't know what to do about my situation.I want to have chest surgery but it's sooooooo expensive.I don't even have half of the amount needed to pay for it.I am currently jobless as I am having difficulty finding a job because I did not finish college.My family is unwilling to support me so there's no help coming from that direction.It's really difficult,to say the least.
I have thought of committing suicide a thousand times already because of the hopelessness that I have felt regarding my situation.I am ALL ALONE in this,really, I am ALL ALONE.If someone,somewhere could just help me financially or who would be willing to point me to a direction where I can obtain financial help,I would be very much grateful to him and I promise to repay him once I get back on my feet again after surgery.I am not wealthy.If I could pay from my own pocket,I would. But there is just no way I could raise the amount that is needed to pay for the chest surgery.That does not include the travel expenses.When I think of all this, I feel like I am carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders.I cannot help but cry.A lot of times,I can't stop crying.It's really difficult.Please HELP me!Please!

All of us here know that things can feel overwhelming sometimes, but you are doing the right thing in reacing out for help. Taking your life is one decision that you can't rethink or reverse. Not to get cliched, but every new day brings hope. This is a good place to talk to people, and there are other support groups online that might be helpful to you in finding guys in your area. I found this listing of groups: http://www.tgcrossroads.org/resources/list.asp?cat=Support&subcat=FTM

That page mentions this group in particular: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FtM-trans/

Searching further might even turn up a group that is specific to the Phillippines, although my first search didn't turn up too much for there.

I think that Yahoo group I list above looks like a very rich resource. I would definitely go there and cast around to see if there are any connections to the Phillippines.

As to surgery cost, that is so hard. How many here have either not been able to have surgery yet as they are saving up, or had to scrape, borrow, save, etc. It can be a long road, and it is not easy to be patient when things feel so urgent. But binding is a good interim step until that day comes.

I hope that anything in here helps you.

Lance,

Hey Man. I have to agree with Adrien, you have taken the first step in creating lines of communication for yourself. I am, what I consider, still early in my transition and there are many nights that I feel overwhelmed and frustrated that I can't move faster than what I am right now. I am always willing to chat if you need someone to talk to.
