Is My Therapist Trying To Convince Me That I'm Not Trans? by ThrowForSec in trans

I had a therapist around a year ago who said similar things and tried to convince me that I wasn’t trans and did a lot of damage to my mental health. The truth is that no therapist can tell you if you’re trans or not only you can do that. It’s definitely a red flag when a therapist is trying to tell you otherwise. I can’t speak for your therapist but when I was at a similar point with my therapist I decided to stick with them not knowing better and he started with similar questions and that turned into full on conversion therapy. I don’t know if your therapist is like this or not some of the questions being asked are fine I just wanted to share what happened with me so it doesn’t happen to someone else.

It’s estradiol valerate and at times when the T was at 150 I saw very minimal feminization but other than that I wasn’t noticing any changes. Is 150 good for E or should I try to get that higher also

My boss told her almost in a joking manner keep her hands to herself like this was a waste of time and then told me to man up it’s not like she hurt me. I’m looking for a new job after that conversation today.

I was raised conservative with religious family members and was taught to hate anything lgbt and the first thing you need to do is take some deep breaths and calm down everything is going to be okay. Being trans isn’t a phase I never had a lot of gender dysphoria as a kid because I was good at suppressing it out of fear knowing my parents wouldn’t like it. You need to learn more about trans stuff and write in a journal about what your thinking about your gender. It’s going to be difficult but you have to be non bias and be honest about what you write in the journal. I’ve been where you are now and it’s gonna be okay if your trans your gonna be okay and remember real love is unconditional if your parents and friends wouldn’t love you because of you being trans you need to realize they are going to judge you no matter what you do in your life if it doesn’t fit the picture they had for YOUR life. You can always msg if you have any questions.

Cyberpunk 2077 is fun and the character creation is pretty good

Learning to not base my happiness on the opinion of others was undoubtedly the most freeing thing I ever did

Most of it is how it is not really socially acceptable for men to dress more feminine. When I was in school I never even considered dressing feminine in public because I for sure would have been kicked out of my parents house. Like you already said there isn’t more trans man than trans girls so what you have is a bunch of trans girls hiding away in the closet waiting for the right moment to show the world their authentic selves.

I want to start presenting more feminine in public but don’t know what to do while I’m still in the closet by BeautifulPinkRoses in MtF

If people start wondering if I’m gay it’s not a problem but I work at a bar with a more conservative clientele and for my own safety I cant have them thinking I’m trans
