Mental Health -, Dysphoria, Trans stuff 

Bad brain this afternoon; maybe because I'm sat at work bored but also dysphoric and sad about the waiting list for NHS trans support. Might end up going private/DIYing eventually, but I think I wanna get my face lasered first because shaving is really dysphoric and hard to keep on top of. I hate having facial hair.

@renbymon not to disappoint or add to your woes: but private really is your only option for expedient results. The NHS waiting list is in the order of 4 years for a first appt with a nurse. 3 more for a doctor. Private assessment can be within 6 months. With a shared care agreement and your GP’s willingness, HRT in 12 (approx) on the NHS.
For everything else (voice training, laser, electrolysis) you’re also looking at private.

@renbymon take the leap sooner rather than later. You can do laser whilst waiting for your assessment.

@Pipponprops Gonna see about getting facial lasering soon. Need to do my name change first for work, so it can happen after that.
