    I can’t really even detransition. I’ve lived my entire adult life as a man.

    I’m so terrified. What does this look like? Jail, inpatient institutionalization? Will they take away my testosterone?

    My brain is on fire. I don’t know where to reach out for help.

      Hey, just jumping in here because this does sound familiar. My nana was a Jew in Poland, born in 1923. She saw the writing on the wall and left for Ukraine and the next 5 years on a farm over there. She came back afterwards and found nothing left for her, and that’s how I’m now Australian - she went to Israel after the war, didn’t much like it and kept moving

      Anyway, my point is get out while you still can. My nana was youngest of 7, and she lost 4 siblings. Don’t know what’s going to happen to you there. You can either stay and fight (one of her brothers was a officer in the red army) or just not deal with the bullshit and move on somewhere that you’ll be more accepted.

      I’m sorry this is so crap but it feels familiar and I’m worried for you.
