Parents are against me going on T
Hi I’m an 18 year old trans guy and my parents are both VERY against me going on T. My mom claims no one knows the long term affects and my brain is not developed enough to make body altering decisions especially if I change my mind. My dad believes in his words “when you’re 30 you’ll have messed up lady parts.” And he claims I should instead go on steroids if I wanna look like a guy so bad and that the doctors or planned parenthood are just in it for the money.This is extremely disheartening to me because I’m struggling to afford T right now and they offer no help. I’m not close with my dad but I am with my mom and I’m scared of loosing our relationship. Elder trans people how are you doing? Are you happy you went on T? What are the long term effects? I’m scared of loosing my family but I’m also scared of not being myself.
