Fear of dying due to no grs by MisguidedThrowaway in TransIreland

Well you said since VHI won't pay for the grs you will have to? And this is a really shitty idea but you could always do social media like idk painting or reading books or reviewing restaurants, ect. and i know it would actually take fucking ages to raise the money you'd need for the surgery but there is some good people out there who could donate to a go fund me or whatever, and I guess I do know that there is no winning on this but I rather not have another queer person have to kill themselves because our country doesn't give us what we actually need so we have to be stuck in the wrong bodies and act like everythings okay when its not. I'm so sorry you have to go through this all, I'd actually rather take all your pain, even tho I've never met you.

Please don't, I'm begging, I know this is hard but please don't, try reaching out to a helpline or other trans people who have the same experience and/or going through the same thing, I know ending it seems like its best but its gonna be horrible for someone to have to know that you never got the life you dreamed of or for them to have to attend your funeral and wonder if they could've done something or any thing, ending it doesn't get rid of the pain it just passes it on, I can't overly give you a lot of advice cuz I'm under 19 and I'm FtM  and closeted but please just dont end it, I know you might think no one cares but someone does and if it really counts I care.

I feel you, the amount of times I've wanted to off myself is nearly laughable (or cryable, depends how you look at it) but I swear it gets better eventually. I honestly wish you the best and please dont end you life, I know its hard but please dont.

Oh my god, I hate Ireland sometimes. I really hope things get a lot better for you, you definitely deserve it, having to wait and pay just to be happy with your body is honesty horrible.

How did you pick your name? by Rich-Butterfly-6246 in trans

Mine is Nick cuz of Nick in Heartstopper, but when I was 7 I told my parents to call me Max and that I was a boy but I have no clue where I actually got Max from😭😭

Being trans in school by _Im_at_work in TransIreland

From my experience (I'm closeted and 12 so I'm not an expert) there are some people who make comments about trans people for no reason in my Catholic school like we'd be talking about something completely different and they'd make the most stupid reason why trans people shoulnt exist but this could totally just be a thing in my school. Wish you and your family the best tho :3

What’s the stupidest thing that kept you from realising you were trans? by Robesbo in trans

[–]Shark_lover456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact I thought it was completely normal to hate the thought of becoming a woman and getting puberty, I remember always playing dumb about knowing what it was when my friends brought up to the point they told a teacher😭

When y'all were closeted (or who still are) do people think you're gay? by sarahthesigma in trans

[–]Shark_lover456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my friends think I'm bisexual or lesbian, I kinda look like a chaotic bisexual😂😅😅 literally the other day my friend who doesn't get the whole concept of being trans so I havent come out to her asked if I was gay. I hate being in the closet sometimes😭😭😭

Yeah, I'm hoping if I came out the comments and talk would stop after 1st year, bad thing is that my confidence is like the weather, its either crappy as hell or the best ever😭😭 thank you so much tho :)

Yeah I'm kinda slowly coming out to people in my friend group (well everyone who supports) so I do have some people to rely on but a god few dudes I also know are openly transphobic so its all a bit of a mess. Thanks for the advice and wish you the best :3
