    This 3+ weeks lasting dysphoria is absolutely awful and I'm so tired of it. Why is it this bad for such a long time, when it's usuallly barely noticeable? It sucks all energy out of me.

    Hi Rain, it sucks I know. But...you have your appointment in a few weeks' time. There is light at the end of the tunnel! It's not long now till you can start your medical transition in earnest.

    Sending you big hugs, my friend,
    Beth x

    Thank you Beth and hugs.

    I'm having a meeting, but after that it will still take time before I get the permission and appointment waiting times can be a few months long for the endocrinologist too.

    There is also no guarantee that my dysphoria dissapears. It's like having your insides all tightening, resulting in uncomfortableness and when before I had no bottom dysphoria, then now I have it and I don't even dislike those parts as much as the top part.

    Hey buddy I'm sorry you are feeling this and for so long it really is unfair and I wish it didn't happen to you. I hope you can sleep a lot if that is helpful and otherwise read stories and watch shows that might cheer you up and pass time :hugging:

    Thank you and it is very unfair. I wouldn't wish it upon to my worst enemy.

    But you know what even though I hate it all with my entire being I wouldn't want to be so called "normal" again. I feel like doing everything society expects is too restrictive. I'm no longer that boring, silent shell. I have personality now and even though I get told I do things because others do them, then I don't care. I will just be me.

    I do feel a little better. Talking about it always helps some way.

    I absolutely agree with you, mate. That sounds great, yeah.

    Anyway, I don't know how to help you, but I send you loads of colossal warm hugs from my hometown.

    P.S. You can find attached an infinite multiplier for those hugs.
