About this ebook
The intention of this short biography is to provide an insight about a period in my life when I started to walk the path of transexuality with no prior knowledge and experience in a society that is filled with taboos, intolerance, and discrimination. The discovery of my true self brought joy and idealistic expectations about the future of finally being me. When the path filled up with disappointments, hurts, and mockery, inner pain set in with a vengeance. To quiet the feelings, the emotions, I walked into the abyss of drugs, indiscriminate sex, and self-destruction.
