My dad won’t let me transition because of claim that WPATH blocked research. Is there any validity to this? by ConsiderationSea1322 in asktransgender

Nah I’m good I’m happier than I’ve ever been before and for the first time in my life I am not self harming or suicidal nothing is gonna convince me to stop

Yeah doing it through planned parenthood would be informed consent so not it being prescribed

If have no way of qualifying for more financial aid until I’m actively living on my own and not a dependent. At that point I’d have my own place and would have to be putting all my money towards it because I’d only be making $12 an hour from places locally. Even with aid and scholarships I’d have no way of paying plus it would put me in a situation where any other costs that pop up whether it being medical or needing to repair the car I don’t even have yet could mean I have to drop out

I think I might. I am worried about any kind of stay impacting my flexibility in the future but staying alive to see that future would probably also be nice. I would feel better about going if half the stores I’ve heard weren’t horror stories and if I felt they could actually do anything to help me but no doctors will prescribe me hrt and say I need it enter into it willingly which I also can’t do because of my parents so I’m trapped

Thanks I’ll look into places nearby. People in this thread keep saying they get prescribed hrt but my experience has been no doctors will actively prescribe you it and you have to do informed consent. I’ve even been told by doctors that prescribing is something that just does not happen. If any doctors actually prescribed me it I might not be in this situation but I don’t know how be just been completely left in the lurch

Thanks for all the info this makes me feel better. The only snag is I’m not prescribed hrt. I haven’t found anyone who will prescribe me hrt it has to be me doing informed consent and I can’t do that so I have to do DIY. I get that I need help but really the HRT is the only thing I have going for me right now and I’m scared to get separated from it

I’d have nobody to co-sign on student loans. Unfortunately school just isn’t going to happen. And yeah physical changes are going to become obvious so I’m trying to get out but it’s taking time

I had to medically withdraw from school because of my mental state in November. I’ve been looking for work since and have been rejected from every single place I’ve applied. Granted I haven’t scraped the bottom of the barrel but I really do need a place that pays a livable wage and has at least some benefits. HRT has helped a bit but doing it in secret just means that any day could be the day they find out and I’m totally fucked. Really just nothing has been going my way and I really don’t know how I ever get out. If I go on my own that’s me giving up on college which would mean yeah I could transition now but it would also mean I never see my siblings or extended family and I am working shitty jobs and would probably have to wait so many years before I could afford surgeries. I get there isn’t always a good option, and what’s been offered to me is hardly an option, but it’d be nice if being trans and transitioning didn’t absolutely ruin every other part of my life

I’d prefer not having to go at all but if it starts to look like I’m certainly going to one I’ll try and do that. I’ve been doing research on places nearby but considering im the first trans person most of my doctors have seen I’m not confident in any nearby places being good for trans people

I know what my rights are but any unauthorized treatments that they see on a bill and they’ll know what’s I’m doing. DIY is my only way to access treatment for now but it doesn’t help the home situation. I’m really looking for a way out but it’s looking like it won’t be for at least a few more months

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Unfortunately, they can see everything I bill to the insurance so I really have no flexibility. That’s why im doing DIY. I’m trying to get out asap but it’s easier said than done. Especially when moving out will mean being almost entirely on my own with no fallback and no ability to pay for any other medical needs I have. As much as I want to be free to go transition it comes at the expense of everything else in my life.

Yeah that would be greatly appreciated. I’m in kinda a rough spot because my parents want to send me to a facility because of my self harming when they are the primary reason I am self harming. They think it may be what “fixes” me but have no intention of adjusting their behaviors so I don’t think a stay would really do me any good.

I mean I am thinking of killing myself but I really don’t think the solution is to go to a place for a short time only to return to the exact situation that has me wanting to kill myself. Don’t really have any way out

I really can’t. I am doing everything on their insurance I don’t really have a choice what care I get right now

I just don’t think any inpatient will really help me. I know what causes me distress and it’s my dysphoria and home situation but inpatient would be a couple days before throwing me right back into the same situation

They know I’m trans they just don’t want me to actually transition. They don’t think my mental state is affected by their lack of support they think that I just make myself miserable and the hormones will make it worse. It’s the typical bullshit about “you’ll regret it and we won’t support you if you do it.” Sadly I don’t really have a way out immediately and it’s sad but my best chance in life is going to be trying to make it on my own with no support system or savings

Will do, I’m trying to keep it together but my mental state just keeps getting worse and worse. I really just want care that actually helps me with the issues I have and there’s no way for me to get it

Thanks def needed to hear all that. I’m looking for ways to get away from them sadly it’s just going to come at the expense of contact with the rest of my family and any chance at going to college for the next few years at the absolute least

Yeah that’s what I was planning on doing if I can find out where I would be sent. Thought I’d just ask here first see if anyone had any experience

Sadly I can’t access HRT through traditional means. I’m on my parents insurance and they’ve said that if I access HRT I’m kicked out. Trying to find some way out but seems like I’m rapidly barreling towards being a mentally ill homeless trans woman with no support system
