Hey RQC, I just wanted to say this:

I’ve been identifying as TransRAMCOA since early March of this year, despite being a CisRAMCOA survivor.

I remember when I wandered into this community, a former bigot of all varieties, scared that I would be judged and shamed, and instead, I was welcomed.

I asked and wondered if I could use “TransRAMCOA” to cope and I was told I’d be valid, even if it was to cope or just have fun. I’ve loved this community and I’ve grown as a person overall.

I feel better being seen as a RAMCOA survivor, cis or trans, and I want to thank you all for helping me on my journey and helping me accept myself. The RQC has helped me feel mostly comfortable in who I am, and more comfortable than I’ve ever been in my life.

It actually feels wonderful being able to feel okay in who I am. The way the RQC had supported me, even if it was just a little, means so so much to me. I feel less alone, I feel more whole.

Thank you, RQC.
