The journey of gender affirmation can feel even more complex when life's pressures seem unrelenting
Most people who start Gender Affirming Care feel trapped in a life they don't love. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe you don't look forward to much or you feel like you want to escape your life.
Stuck in negativity and feeling hopeless, you may feel like life is overwhelming, like it's too much.
Do You Feel Lost, Empty, Hopeless?
Do any of the following resonate with you?
You feel fear stricken, even in the "comfort" of your own home.
You wake up every morning feeling overwhelmed and depressed.
You feel like you are wandering through life, feeling like something is missing or your balance is "off."
If these sound true for you, I want you to know that in our society, we don’t talk about it very much, but what you are experiencing is normal.
