Hi everyone.
My name is April and my second CAMH appointment is coming up soon. I have met the requirements of living full time for a year, changing my name etc.
I have been told I need to explain the surgery and my plans for recovery in this meeting.
I wonder if anyone could tell me about their own experiences in this second meeting?
Hugs,
April

Hi April!
I was just curious of what CAMH is like? When I was transitioning in the late 90s and early 2000s I heard some unbelievable horror stories about mis treatment of transgender people coming out of there.
Anyways welcome and enjoy!!

Hi Tessa i would rather not go but don't have the money for SRS. When i was 14 i was sent to the clarke. 1982-3 not sure of the date my memories of that time are blocked right now,my therapist says it was my minds way with dealing with what happened. they denied that i was me and said my mom was behind it all. to much time with mom which was bull but it is the old zucker game. i forgot alot of who i was until 14 months ago when things started to change i can only remember fragments but i have pieced enough to figure out everything. i will start HRT outside of Camh my therapist will sigh my letter in the next few weeks,i am doing on my terms not theres. a friend is taking in me to see her endroconologist to meet him then i will have my gp send me there and so on. its taken 30 years they harmed me. and they owe me the money for the operation. lucky i don't have to deal with zucker. i have heard some really bad things if true he could one of the worst monsters canada has ever seen but i have no evedence only stories from others.
