A Life Reborn? Rebecca Begins a Blog

I recently met someone online who is just beginning her path to self acceptance though she, like so many, have struggled for years to internalize her true self.   In "A Life Reborn," Rebecca explains how she's recently seen a gender therapist who has had extensive experience dealing with gender identity issues.   The question Rebecca raises concerns her therapist's recommendation (after one visit) that she's ready to begin a hormone replacement therapy program.  

How soon is too soon?  And when SHOULD a therapist prescribe HRT?   How rigid should the WPATH Standards of Care be followed?   Being that this is Rebecca's new blog and first post, I'm hoping you'd be willing to head over there and chime in.   Her "Followers" feature is up so you can follow along with her too!
