I hit like an actual breaking point where I don't even feel like I've decided to transition. It's just going to happen. I have a couple small surgeries coming up later this year, but after that I'm going on hormones.
I spent so long overthinking things, saying oh I'm not actually trans I just hate my body because I'm fat, oh I'm not trans I just hate my life because it sucks. But now I'm losing a lot of weight and my life is trending up and it's like the excuses lost their power to hold back this roar within me. My stupid brain keeps trying to be like "oh I'm too tall. oh my feet are too big. oh I'll never pass" but those thoughts have no power now. I've never felt anything like this, it's like my heart is saying "sorry, brain, you've fucked this up for too long, I'm making this decision now"
Right now I'm trying to figure out if it would be possible to get insurance to cover stuff if I got a diagnosis of gender dysphoria, and if so how to get that. I am going on hormones at the end of this year, that's locked in, so I'll probably have to DIY it at first at least. But electrolysis is so fucking expensive. And I haven't even checked the price of FFS yet because I know I don't want to know. So I'm waiting for a call back from my clinic hopefully today so I can get some answers.
