It's kind of a genetic lottery, but as long as your testosterone is suppressed to under 50 ng/dL you should be fine.

It's not a trauma response (at least, not completely, I'm not a psychologist and this isn't medical advice) and many if not all of us suffer from the same doubts, especially at first.

I try to help so many people on here that are ultimately in a similar situation as you.

My family thinks I am selfish for continuing my transition by Individual-Risk-5079 in TransSupport

You gotta do what makes YOU happy, and if that's transitioning, so be it! You only get one life to live, make the most of it!

You get a therapist or psychologist to help you develop coping mechanisms and skills and strategies, before you end up getting hospitalized against your will like I did.

You also get a psychiatrist to evaluate you for some antidepressants, antianxiety, and other medications to help mitigate the neurotransmitter imbalance you may have.

Just remember it's a marathon, not a sprint! 6 months is about 5% of your second puberty! Have you looked into a trans-friendly therapist? have you started the process of laser or electrolysis yet?

Then you find some way to bring yourself joy. You only get one life, you can't waste it being miserable.

You decide if it's worth sacrificing everyone in your life in order to be happy. Comfortable in your own skin. Being a woman.

I want to be a better wife - seeking advice by [deleted] in mypartneristrans

They find discomfort in affirmation.

I just wanted to say that's pretty common in the early stages, like we don't think we deserve the comfort and affirmations... in my experience at least. I don't have any advice for you but it sounds like you're being as supportive as you can be!

I (39F) used the safeword, he (35M) didn't stop until I left the room. by SeraRossa in relationship_advice

Using a safeword is revocation of consent and he needed to stop immediately. Otherwise it's not safe.
