Anybody feel their life is on hold whilst they're waiting to see a professional/gender clinic?
Most days I can handle it... But sometimes it just feels like too long (I've been waiting a year). I struggle to find summer clothes I feel comfortable with and wanna feel ok with my body...
Going to the gym and seeing all these guys makes me feel sad about my body... I'm trying to keep focused on being healthy and looking after myself and have decided to work towards a fat loss and fitness goal for the winter to give me something to focus on other than the negative feelings I have... I do things like cover mirrors in the house when I'm feeling especially low. I haven't been to the gym in ages as last time I got freaked out and upset... BUT I am hoping if I set goals I can focus on them instead.
This time next year, I'm hoping to be on testosterone (I should have an appointment around September and I know I need to be with them about six months before they can decide if I can transition medically).
Right now, I'm trying to keep it together... Any tips/experiences on this wait would be really beneficial (and no doubt others are in this position)...
Thanks so much.
