Looking back, the thing that freaks me out about gender therapy is that I was never offered any coping skills even just for in the meantime before I could medically transition. No tips on how to deal with a dysphoric panic attack. No advice on how to stop obsessing over the way I was perceived until it made me sick. No actual therapy to address the distress I was feeling in the moment. And that’s just fucking negligent when people literally do commit suicide over dysphoria.
