Hey all. I'm a broke 18-yr-old ftm, so I opted for a breast reduction "in the meantime". It's only $150 for the surgery and a night in the hospital with my insurance, plus my meds which will also be unde rmy insurance for the most part.
I feel really nervous about it, though. Right now I carry D/DD on my chest, and this surgery would bring me down to a small B. I'm really happy and excited to have so much gone, but I already know that it probably won't be enough. Right now, I look even bigger than a B when I'm binded, so I think it will feel great not to bind most of the time or to just be less aware of my huge chest. I'm afraid of getting really depressed, especially during recovery when I'll be in a lot of pain and I'll be thinking about how it's not even enough.
I know that it could be 6-10 years before I'd save up enough for top surgery, so I'm going to have this done in 15 days, 8 days after my 19th b-day. I'm still really nervous though, and a bit scared. My chest will be cut open! Any word of wisdom for little ole me? Thanks.
