so, i may not be able to see my therapist for at least a month at most after tomorrow, so what do i do about tomorrows appointment? do i go and discuss the possibility of transitioning and receiving my letter? i've done the writing as he said and i've fully understood the terms of where my dysphoria is stemming from and i've already begun to transition, but i'm still waiting for HRT to transition the rest of the way (fully outwards). i've found ways to manage my attacks but the methods i'm using arent lasting and are starting to wear thin. any advice on what i should do?

You just have to learn some patience sweetie. I know that is hard to do, but transition takes a while. I know you want to get started as fast as possible, but you are doing it the right way so learn all you can right now. The HRT letter will get there soon enough.  :)

Things you can do now include attaining or maintaining your ideal weight, facial hair removal, working on your voice, wardrobe, makeup technique, mannerisms and demeanor.  Facial hair removal can take 2-3 years, so starting now would be ideal.

Nothing wrong with speaking to your therapist about a letter. Let them know you have already started doing what you can and what those things are.
