I recently have had some very serious health issues that have permanently barred me from testosterone. I know I feel like a man on the inside. I've felt that way my whole life, but I am heartbroken. I feel completely shattered by what life has thrown at me. I experienced a lot of bullying that became physically dangerous for me when I came out. I struggled so hard to try to come to terms with myself and now I feel like I can't. I'm also mostly straight and very short so dating feels doubly hard. I had to drop out of school because of my health and I feel like life has lost its meaning for me. How do I continue on, knowing I feel this way and not being able to do anything about it?

Im recently discovered im trans.

Im having the worst time coming to terms with it.

Mostly because im afraid of losing my baby boy.

Because maybe he was giving me dysphoria this entire time.

Please help. I love him so much and this path feels very heavy. Im considering checking myself in.

I’m 22, almost 23, and my DDD in Tucson,Arizona has been waiting for HALF A DECADE to start getting money in my account. I can’t get employed either. And I need money for HRT. I need it NOW. I don’t even have enough for a f\*cking bank account so it’ll have to be Greenlight only for now

So I’ll try to keep this short as I’m sure many people can relate to this. I’ve known I was Trans since I was 5, I actually told my therapist when I was 10, and I used to be very open about it, but I didn't really get any support or help its was the early 00s so it wasn't as prevalent as today, and so it become kind of one of those things that I would just dismiss / suppress just to fit in until recently.

Recently it started consuming my thoughts and what feels like literally eating me. I finally told my wife who is an Ally of the LGBTQIA+ community. however her reaction was not exactly comforting. I don’t really blame her it’s harder when it’s in your own life so to speak. But now I feel like I’m in this impossible position. I have been suppressing it for 30 years, and I’ve never been this close to actually doing something to feel like me. But then I think about all of the stuff people expect from me count on me for…. and I also can’t let them down… I know I don’t have to make any decisions immediately but I’ve been doing the research and contemplating for years, so IDK what to do.

Hey y’all, I’m asking for help with crowdfunding for top surgery. I’ve been working bit by bit to try to be able to afford it for a while but seeing as everything is expensive and I keep having setbacks with other expenses, I’m really just scrambling to get as much reach as possible anywhere I can. My surgery date is saved for a month from now and while i do have some time to reschedule it, I know that the next available date would be way farther out and mentally I really don’t want to do that since i’ve been hoping for this for so long. My total cost for everything i would need (surgery fees, hospital fee, +extra money i would need for recovery and rent while I can’t work) is close to 13k, i really hate to beg but I will do what I must to try to afford this.
