the issue with being in the US is with his things are right now I'm worried that the "good care" could get taken away very soon bc of the current politics situation. I don't really know much about how the clinical stuff works besides if you dont get it through planned parenthood you have to be diagnosed and it's a huge wait but I might be completely wrong

I've been getting more comfortable with the idea of starting hrt. The 2 main reasons I havent yet are the current US politics and also I'm not ready for my parents to know about that yet and as far as I am aware they would know because I'm on their insurance and it would be in the bill. Diy avoids both of those things though. The one thing idk about is actually paying for it. I'm in college rn and while I did make a good amount of money over the summer, spending $20 per month or however much it is doesn't really sound great but because it is something I genuinely need im not sure and I just want to avoid going through my parents and the medical system

Edit: Also realized I should mention that I am an adult because that's probably important with informed consent stuff

I mean I don't really have a choice because i don't see a better way to put my home server on a url because I live in a dorm and can't port forward or get a static ip

Yeah. If you want an alternative I'd recommend mastodon because from what I've seen at least it's not as brain dead

Any idea how I could find some trans communities irl? I live in a city but I don't know how to look for those types of groups and this is sort of the first time I've gone and actually not lurked and said something on a specifically trans community

What resources would you recommend specifically for figuring out how to get hrt? I am more willing to take the steps after learning how important it is but I still am unsure especially because as far as I know unless you do diy which is risky you have to go through the medical system which takes really long and also has diagnosis and also that migjt not be a great idea to me bc of current politics

thank you for the advice

I'm really unsure about the medical stuff right now bc of the politics situation even if I live in a blue state though and it feels like so much bigger of a hurdle too because it costs money and I am also not ready to like deal with my parents even though im out to them still

Need advice (self.mtf)

**So i'm in a bit of a weird position in my life right now. I've known i'm trans for the past 3ish years and recently started college. Most of the people around me seem to be pretty supportive and my parents are also supportive. I already have everyone calling me by my choice name but other then that I havent done anything I really want to actually start to transition so I can stop being depressed and there are some moments where like i really want to buy fem clothes but i go on amazon and its just too big of a mental hurdle to do anything related to transitioning has anyone else experianced something like this where they were in a place where they could transition and nothing was preventing them but they were just too scared to if so how did you deal with it?

Edit: Thanks so much for the advice everyone I think going on hrt is too scary for me but I'll order some fem clothes tomorrow. I really appreciate the advice and kind words <3
