Agreed except the "mid 20s" thing, I wouldn't have survived that long.

I agree that it's a decision that should be made by the individual and their support network. (family, friends, doctors and psychologists.) And I'm behind those that need to change to salvage their mental health. I had to get lasik when I was 19 because I was having vision induced migraines. The recommendation is to wait until late to mid 20s to get the surgery, but my doctor knew I couldn't wait until my body was fully "developed". Your situation is far more complicated but I understand. It's none of my business what you do with your body! End of story ส˜โ€ฟส˜
