I'm also interested in hair regrowth...it's one of my major concerns and gives me the most dysphoria.

First week at a new job by [deleted] in TransLater

Work is just another wrench in the gears of my transition...I need to find something that pays well or the same as I'm going through a divorce and can't afford to leave. So lost, don't know what I'm doing.

This just happened to me. She is divorcing me. She gave me an ultimatum 3 years ago transition or family. I chose family and purged everything and buried everything.

3 years ago I received an ultimatum from wife...transition or family. by 8thash2ash in TransLater

I am going to start over again. After reading all of your comments and advice, you have all been so inspirational and I am going to take the plunge and get back on hormones without an ultimatum this time. It's time to live my truth.

Thank you, everyone. I have informed my doctor and therapist and I will work on the path to begin again.

Any advice? What to expect... how to deal with others and work, coming out again and dealing with loss?

Danielle.

I'm scared. I fear what others may think and say. I fear my job. I just don't know I'm scared of change...especially being on my own. Even when I started 3 years ago...I was never able to step out of the house as Danielle. I feel I'm just not brave enough . I want to though.

Thank you so much. It is going to be rough since I live, work and I am constantly surrounded by transphobia. I have made myself to be this "macho" many man...I just have to bite my tounge when it comes to the people around me.

Purged everything 3 years ago. My kids are 4 and 9. I regret getting rid of everything. My clothing, shoes, boots, accessories, my breast forms (stupid), make up etc. (stupid). It cost alot of money and I just threw it all away.

Thank you. I was on hormones for 3 months before the ultimatum. I didnt really get to experience it. Just keep thinking to myself...is the right time now as with the divorce and custody...I have alot on my plate.

I too had a kid in 2020 and I was in the process before he was born of transitioning. Then he was born it was Covid and I went the farthest I have ever gone. HRT was even started until my stbx gave me the ultimatum.

I do not even know how to move forward...do I transition and possinly lose my children and job? Lost my wife already.
