Hey ya'll. I'm a 24 year old trans man, currently about 3 weeks on T. I'm having a really tough time lately. Had a horrible breakdown yesterday about my identity not being real and not knowing why my family doesn't understand. I even thought to myself like would they believe me if I told them it was a disease and T was the medicine I needed to be on to fix it. It makes me so angry and upset to think that the only way my family will listen to me is if I tell them I'm sick in the head and have a mental condition.

      My dad wouldn't listen to me even if it was a disease or disorder.. I understand how you feel man.. the anger and feelings of rejection..

      Heya! My dad won't listen to me about my identity unless I have a 'diagnosis'. I told him thats not really how it works where we are but he won't listen. I've considered just not transitioning before because of his hard headedness. Ultimately though, you gotta do whats best for you. Don't let people who don't understand win. You look out for you and find others who do too
