Title: Transitioning privately in the UK
Post by: _Jack_ on May 23, 2012, 08:42:28 AM
Hey guys!

Looking for advice/how well people have found this route. I live in Scotland, UK and considering the idea of going through a private health care route for transitioning, I'm pre-everything and was referred to a therapist last December and there is a waiting list of just under a year. I don't think I can wait much longer, the dysphoria that I'm getting right now is perhaps the worst it's ever been.

Thanks guys,

Jack.

I've got this guy on Youtube, Fionn, he lives in Glasgow. And if I'm not mistaken he talked about something like that. Can't be sure because it was some weeks ago and I think I was multitasking while listening to the video, but still, might be worth to message him. His Youtube name is Xymrn.

Ah look, here's a video that actually says 'Going private' in the title ;)
