Hey, all. Brand new user, but I've been lurking for what seemsl ike ages and this site has always managed to make me feel a lot more confident about how I feel and what might happen. I'm living in Sweden, which means the road ahead to be approved for HRT is a long one, but today I'm finally going to book an appointment with a psychologist who should understand and write me a referral to the investigation team out in Uppsala. I'm sure about this, and I know I have a long time to wait, but I'm still super nervous about the very first meeting.
I guess I just want to get a few of the obvious questions out of the way and hope I hear that there's hope. First, I am only 21 years old - older than I would have liked, but I know that it's not exactly "too old" to begin. Even though sometimes I worry it is. I'm good at worrying about things too much. At 21, will fat redistribution be more likely to do what I would hope?
Next, I'm going to try to upload a picture or two. They're a bit old (maybe a full year on the first, and about eight months for the second), but it should be fine as a marker for my face, since bone structure's not something that will just change. Do I look too masculine to expect good results from HRT, and should I keep FFS "on call," as it were?
I know that HRT absolutely isn't a miracle tool and that I shouldn't expect everything to work out simply because I want it to, but I would love to get some of your thoughts - don't hold back if you have something negative to say. I feel like I need to hear some genuine thoughts on this since this is about a huge part of my life. I obviously am not planning on not going through with it if I hear negative things, but it would be nice to know whether I should expect good or poor results.
Thanks so much for your time, guys.
