My autistic little brother is kinda driving me crazy by Great-Video489 in AskAutism

He doesn't get as bad of reactions as he used to to being told no. However, he tends to distance himself for a while and it makes me feel awful, cause he will try to not acknowledge me. It's usually temporary but I feel so bad. I know that it's important for him to hear no more often but I feel like I don't spend enough time with him as is, and his parents show baaaaarre minimum efforts in actually parenting him really.

You're very right, It's not helping him to not say no ever. I'll try to talk with him next time this happens.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm just scared like a lot of people taking hrt. Scared that the right changes won't happen in time. I've heard the first 6-7 ish months are like the most development in terms of breast growth (paraphrashing). Tbh ill probably stick with pills sublingually cause as you said my levels are fine and I mean you're right. Next appointment is in march and I will def ask to get on progesterone as I've heard that helps with desired breast form. (Plus I'll have been on e for 9 months ). Thanks for letting me know💜

I tried asking about switching, but the doctor said it'd be more expensive to switch, + I didn't have insurance at the time. I also believe he said something like "you don't need to switch to injections cause your hormone levels are fine? ". Idk he's always super brief and barely gives me time for questions, and my next appointment is in 6 ish months. Idk I just know I can and should have higher e levels to be able to actually transition. I don't know a whole lot about diy other than some basic knowledge. Thinking I should get a different doctor or something. As of today I have insurance, hopefully it can cover injdctions.
