In a bad place

Tomorrow I will be condemned by our gender clinic, to live with a man´s social security number. They absolutely refuse to help to change it, because I don´t submit to very lenghty and in my opinion abusive psychiatric and psyhological examinations. All because, I ask for one number change in social security number. Five to six...uneven number being man, and even number being woman.

I have paid everything else myself and I have completed medical transition, with my own money, taking care of everything...and I only ask for one thing from this society and they refuse. I even got my name changed legally without any help from this murderous gender clinic.

It was a nasty meeting yesterday. They said and in my opinion somewhat in unpleasent way, that the fact that they refuse to help, will make my life very difficult. I will be clocked everywhere as a transwoman and it wont do good to my mental health and will be bad to my health. They admitted this and said it in a laughing way.

I asked them, that what kind of nurse and doctor they are, if they think that this is ethically correct way to do and this is the correct way in a treatment way. To condemn me basically to death and take away my right to health care for women, which this body would require. All I got for answer, was silence.

Basically, it is a death sentence tomorrow which I will receive. I might be dead tomorrow, depending how my psyche will react to this and seeing that I cannot sleep, the reaction probably wont be any good. I might be dead in few months, because I don´t get health care, because I am not a woman in their eyes, and I´m not a transwoman because I didn´t get a diagnose. I already had a blood clot in my leg, which thankfully was most likely a superficial. But it will renew and someday, it will be deeper and I will be dead most likely.

I might be dead due to violence in a year or so, because I will be clocked as a trans, no matter how I will look. I like to travel and to travel to a wrong country, looking like a woman, but owning a man´s passport, will be the death of me.

I am dead already.

I wish I could silence my conscience and to submit to those abusive examinations. But I cannot silence it and if I try to bypass my conscience...that wont do good to my psyche anyways...and I´m dead.

I think I will soon meet everyone, who has died just because they were transgender. Hopefully there is a welcoming party there, because life here certainly wasnt a party.

Thank you Finland...

 Mendi, is there another clinic or government office you can go to for assistance. Where are you located? If I can help you find another resource I will try and help. I don't need personal information do not share that with anyone unless it's a must and in person. Just your City, State and clinic.
  I didn't realize this until now but my number is even and I was born male.

There is no other way. Our law is what it is and only 2 gender clinics can give you the paper, which allows you to change your legal gender. And to give F64.0 diagnose.

I have F64.0 diagnose written by a Finnish doctor and it shows in my official medical records, F64.0 written by a gynecologist who wrote prescriptions for hormones, F64.0 written by an English doctor, who is writing recommendation for surgery and the surgeons in Thailand will write F64.0 to my papers.

None of this matters, their diagnoses are not valid in Finland. Only those 2 gender clinics can give that diagnose and only diagnose given by those two, is accepted here. And the 2 gender clinics are linked together, just in different cities.

 Sorry about this, it seems ridiculous. Can you move or are you pretty much set where you are? Things in life anywhere seem to be hard for transwomen and men. It's hard enough with society the way they are much less government bureaucracies.

Only option is to move to Denmark or to Norway for six months after which I can change my legal gender there and that will be accepted in Finland.

I just sent few emails to tg organization in Norway and tg and lgbt+ organisations in Denmark, asking for help.

I don´t know, perhaps I will tomorrow go the Danish or Norwegian embassy and seek asylum from their country...for six months.

So sorry to hear.

This sounds worse than Germany which currently requires 3 years RLE + two court appointed mental health specialists evaluating you. Especially hard for people like me who have not lived there for 13 years. I would have to move back for 6 month to get it done. So no legal name / gender change for me in the near future. Really sucked big time last fall when I had to extend my passport.

Hope you will find a way, keeping my fingers crossed.

Don't forget, you always have options!!!

This is where life begins for me. It's a miracle I finally got it done.


My body is the home of my soul; not the other way around.

I'm more than anything an individual; I'm too complex to be put in any box.

The past is overrated - why stick with it when you are able to recreate yourself every day
