βI was in the same place eighteen months ago. A waiting list for the gender clinic, every single day. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. You're not on your own.β
βTo whoever needs this: A year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. A name change on all the forms, every single day. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. You're not on your own.β
βI was right where you are in 2023. Back then it was married with kids and only now admitting it to myself. I laugh properly again. It doesn't stay this heavy. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.β
βComing out is different for everyone. For me, my dad stopped talking. That hurt more than I expected. But some people surprised me. My brother let me in. A friend from class checked on me. The waiting list for the clinic is long, but I'm still here. If you're just starting, take it slow. You don't have to tell everyone at once. And if someone walks away, it says more about them than you. Keep the people who stay.β
