Title: First visit to the Gender Therapist
Post by: Alex_K on December 19, 2012, 07:35:28 PM
Yesterday I had my first visit to the Gender Therapist at the Hospital ClĂ­nic in Barcelona. I just wanted to share how much of a joy it has been for me. A milestone that feels like a turning point :-)

I'm very dysphoric, but I'm not suicidal about it. Here in Catalunya, if they see at the first visit that you're in a point of your life when it's trans or death, they go straight to hormones, without a real life test. That makes me feel kinda proud about my country.
Anyway, before the visit I felt like I still needed to reflect more about it, to experiment with my gender, blabla. I'll be real-lifing as much as I can until February, when a new visit is scheduled, and I'll try to figure out if I do really need to go HRT, or if I'm happy with being a femenine man (although I think I already know the answer, I'm all for double-checking).

Ready to jump to the girls side :-)
