I’m sorry I have not posted and I won’t be for awhile. Since December 13th I have been living a nightmare. When taking my love to her favorite grandparents so she wasn’t alone while I went to work we were in an accident that never ended. My whole heart and my entire soul died with this beautiful girl. I brought Zowie home on March 1st of 2024 it was love at first sight then and there our family was whole my goal in life was to provide my beautiful girls with the best life they could have. Me and Zowie were inseparable dog people will understand she was my child we did everything together she went into stores with me, car rides, vacations, we were inseparable where I go she goes. She was the one who saved me. My other cat babies thought she was a very strange cat but they still loved her, cleaned her, and secreted fed her. My whole family is devastated with the loss of this beautiful angel. I’m still recovering physically with no end in sight and mentally is day by day. Thanks for all the support I know you all with provide. I appreciate every single one of you.

Wow you started transitioning at 13 ?! So before entirely figuring out your own sexual orientation … as someone who could have transitioned and who ended up being just a masculine adult dyke, someone who as a teenager had dysphoria (not strong enough that I actually wanted a penis tho) and dysmorphia that were linked to a poor mental health, this is where it get scary tbh. In many ways when medical transitioning happens too young it can be a form of conversion therapy without realising it. Changing body while young in a world where homosexuality is still judged negatively (if not worst) raises red flags at the medical staff letting it happen. I’m not saying you ultimately are anything else than happy right now, I’m saying people should not begin HRT nor have top surgery before they’re 18. I rejected my body so much back then (granted, many teens regardless of dysphoria experience that, which ppl tend to forget), I started loving it through the realisation that women could love it.

I’m hearing a lot of personal experience and not alot of actual facts. Here’s a fact for you 90% of people who transition young report increased life satisfaction with less then 1% regretting there transition let me repeat that for you LESS THEN 1% regret there transition. Do not assume a transition is instantaneous it is strenuous millions go through years of therapy to gain access to hormone therapy don’t get me started the hoops and bounds you jump through to obtain access to surgery.

I’m sorry you based your life on the love of others but that is not why people transition. And further more It is not scary you’re just misguided early recognition and support can truly salvage an extremely difficult life, aging into a body that does not match with who they are inside.

This is the comment that floors me because you wish to share your opinion but your uneducated on what being transgender even is, it’s like showing up to a debate about womans rights then your argument is that the grass is blue. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with why I transitioned? I transitioned for myself and not based on who else loved me but based on loving myself.

Hi, could you tell me about going on T? How did you get it and was there paperwork, Medical appointments does it hurt? etc. (if you're comfortable, of course)

I’m not sure I’m a wonderful source for this unfortunately I started testosterone well over 10 years now. This world has made leaps and bounds since my start.

Obtaining testosterone was a strenuous process I needed to find the right therapy and back in 2012 that wasn’t a super common practice. Nor was this easy due to the fact I was merely 13 at the time this was heavily based on the support of my mom. Once finding the correct therapist I had to consistently see her for well over a year she would additional need to meet with my parents, once she finally felt comfortable she then would recommend me with a letter to a doctor that can provide the prescription. After starting T the doctor requested regular quarterly blood draws and face to face assessment to get the right dose settling me at a good level within healthy limits. Now I am required to meet with her every 6 months with a blood draw for checkups.

The paperwork was endless there was kick back at every step.

Several medical appointments, between meet and greets, physicals, paperwork.

The Shot yes and no but at that moment when beginning testosterone has been that endless fight to obtain the physical pain is nothing like the mental pain you had to endure up until that point. It’s the same as getting most vaccines it merely hurts for a second then it’s over.

Again I’m fairly confident the endless pushback is not as back these days and believe you should reach out to someone who has started that process more recently, it’s incredible the growth and progress the trans community has made in the last century.
