i've kinda hit a wall. im a minor so i need a gender dysphoria diagnosis before i can start hrt and my therapist and doctor wont write me a diagnosis so im kinda just stuck waiting. other than that im pretty good. ive socially transitioned in my family and my school and its going swimmingly (blahaj reference)

I know how that feels. It becomes an annoying waiting game at that point. Right when I turned eighteen I zoomed my ass over to an informed consent clinic and started. Good thing is that you've got something major to look forward to.
