@demenishki I stopped treatment shaming myself when I realized I wouldn't expect a diabetic to stop taking insulin, so why are my meds for my brain chemicals any different. This isn't an excuse to avoid therapy, and self improvement.
@AuriBlooms Everybody's transition is different because everyone's dysmorphia is their own. Saying 'you'll be so pretty on hormones' might sound like the kind of encouragement that you could have used but isn't universally true. TLDR not transphobic but also maybe agitating.
@brdmoedr HRT isn't just one thing with one dose. So people should be advocating for people advocating for themselves. So this medication isn't working for you, what are the other options, pill, injection, depth, dosage.
@Rikalii You misspelled Transphobes, I don't know any Cis people that aren't Transphobes that say that. But congratulations and good luck on your transition I hope you can find a place where at the minimum you feel comfortable, and at best slay.
