  • Desperate Help

    I came out of the closet as a transgender at the age of 13. My dad didn't accept it until the day he died when I was 16. After my dad died, my mom got to thinking that life is too short so she embraced it and has since tried to help me. Someone referred us to this clinic that catered to children and young adults who were trans. They wouldn't let me do the testosterone because they wanted me to take the hormone blockers first for a whole year. After that, I went to an adult clinic, but it was hard because I didn't have any medical assistance and had not done anything in a few years. I desperately need surgery and hormones. I feel so weird and I am always thinking people see me as weird and ugly. I wear baggy clothes so I can hide my shape, especially my hips. I put on layers of clothes to hide my breasts. I am frustrated and not sure how or where to get the help I desperately need.

    I feel your pain and it is really hard to make the transition. I think you should speak to a professional. That might help you to understand more about your body and to start making the changes that will make you happy.

      People are so damn cruel and rude. And so I understand your fear. But, you have to be proud of who you are and take charge of your future. I also say see a counselor or therapist and a doctor that specializes in transgender issues.

        The process of transitioning is so unique and delicate and it takes time most of the time. So you have to be very patient throughout the process. The most important thing is to get started. Find out how to do that.

          It must be frustrating that you have to wear baggy clothes or layers of clothes to hide your own body. You ain't alone though. There are many trans going through the same thing. I think you should find a transgender support group too. You'll meet people with similar experiences and that should give you more confidence. Some support groups also offer recommendations to specialists.

            Thanks for all the kind remarks. I am trying to deal with it the best way I know how. I am going to see if I can make an appointment to speak to a doctor or specialist first. Thanks again.

                Hey, not being a jerk here but, I'd wait until I can have my own money to go under the knife. Go to school, work, and save for it. Just my two cents

                  Maybe the reason that he wants to transition earlier is so people will stop asking about his orrientation

                  I get what he means but its difficult to do these things without a plan, first thing you need is money

                I agree with him on this. Because what you need to focus on first is improving yourself by finishing school and trying to get a job. Once you're done with that, you can transition properly already. But there might be support groups out there that can help you as well when it comes to your transitioning needs

                  Nice to read the advice that you guys have given him. Nice to know that we're supporting each other

                    first off, are you ok? And stop thinking that people are thinking you're ugly. Paranoia can affect your overall health
