It is very short, but it made me realize that I cannot predict the emotional or psychological issues that potentially will arise from transitioning, including disturbing my relationships with my wife, children and friends. Those issues might be substantially worse than what I am dealing with right now. I lived with depression from repressing the fact that I am TG. I don't want to go back to the world of depression! Five weeks of ECT is enough!
