Title: Did you ever RUN OUT OF MONEY and don't know anymore how to do to get hormones?

Well, this is my case right now. Did it ever happen to you that you faced a financial crisis and didn't know anymore how to get hormones for a while? What happened exactly and how did you do to surmount this?

I cried.

My situation was poverty, and I couldn't afford a doctor nor the hormones.  Going off estrogen was less hard physically than I expected, but it was very hard psychologically.

Still, we do what we are forced to do.  Life always has unpleasant surprises.  The key to survival is to be flexible, and to persevere.
