I’m really glad to hear that, I really think it can help. In the meantime, if you ever need a sympathetic ear, to trauma dump or rant or anything, please feel free to reach out. I’m really sorry about the people invalidating you, that must be really horrible, but remember you are never alone, there are always people who care about you.

This is a really, really bad take and it’s very cruel, I completely understand why you’d be suspicious, but I think even with those suspicions, you should be erring on the side of caution, on the chance you are wrong, you may have pushed a transgender person closer to suicide by invalidating their experiences.

There is a good deal of transmedicalism out there, and I don’t see many signs of OP being a troll at all, they seem like someone nearing the end of their rope to me.

Your feelings are totally valid, my advice to you is to seek out a trans-friendly therapist and to work with them. It sounds more expensive than it is, and if it could save your life, it’s worth every penny.

I’m really really sorry you’re going through this, it sounds incredibly traumatic and difficult, and I really wish there was more advice I could give.

Try to hang in there, and I really really hope things improve for you.
