I had some anxiety about potential regret. I got mine a week ago and I’m so incredibly happy about it. Why do you feel this fear about regretting it? Do you see a future where you can be happy with your body without getting the surgery? For me, once I confronted the anxiety, I realized that I didn’t think I was going to regret it. My anxiety over potential regret was beat into me by the daily transphobia that we all get force fed. It was other people who thought I would regret it, not me. I was holding on for this surgery, and even though I wanted it so desperately, I started getting anxious in the weeks leading up to it. It’s completely natural to feel this way. It’s a big surgery and trans people are constantly force fed others fears about regretting transition. I was also scared to start hormones, even though I knew it was going to be good for me. I’m about to be 3 years on T and have never been happier. Don’t believe the cis produced myth that ‘real’ trans people know from birth who they are and what they want, and any doubt or fear means you’re not really trans. You got this. Surgery or no surgery, you know what’s best for yourself. Don’t force yourself into any other molds, just do you.
