You are not how other people see you

Two of my friends got pregnant and still here I am, almost two years in active sex and still nothing. I wanna be happy for them, I do. But I'm reeling with distraught feelings with my difficulty to get pregnant. Would've been ok but people kept asking me about it.

hey there!i know it can be hard to keep from comparing yourself to other, but try to keep in mind that everyone is on their own journey. it’s okay to be upset about your difficulties, you’re allowed to be upset! remind your family/friends if you aren’t feeling up to discussing your journey. you don’t have to discuss anything you don’t want to! you will be okay <3

My friend Emily is raising money to get an Important Surgery done and you should totally donate to her page because she is great people!

in her own words:

“ Hi! I’m Emily. I’m a theatre-maker, pro wrestler in training, music school dropout and board game nerd. I’m also a trans woman, and am trying to raise a lot of money to access healthcare I desperately need. Trans healthcare under the NHS in the UK is utterly broken. Wait times for initial gender identity clinic appointments are between 2 and 4 years with further waits of around a year for subsequent appointments. Trans people are made to jump through hoops to ‘prove’ we know best about our own gender identity, and progress through the system can be lost or reset due to the GICs’ ineptitude. This has happened to me multiple times. All of this money I’m trying to raise would go toward one particular treatment which would have a huge benefit to my mental and physical health. I started using NHS transition services in January 2013, and if I’m unable to raise this money I’m looking at a 3 or 4 year wait on top of all the waiting I’ve already done. I’ve been given a quote of £9000 for this treatment but warned that the price will be increasing to £10500 next year. This isn’t counting the £750 I’ll need for initial referrals/consultations, the cost of prep work I may need or the cost of medical supplies. I’m trying to raise some of this money by saving and have a small amount set aside but I pay London rent and am only able to work sporadically, which means even if I was super frugal it would take me 5+ years to raise this much. So I’m asking you for help. Please believe that I wouldn’t be asking for money like this if I thought there was any way I’d be able to wait this out without my mental health suffering to the point of being unable to function. I always feel guilty when I need to ask for financial help, and this is by far the most financial help I’ve ever needed to (and hopefully will ever need to) ask for. I wouldn’t do it if there was any doubt in my mind that I needed this. Trans healthcare of any kind isn’t a luxury and is entirely necessary.“

So yeah please donate if you can, she’s already ¼ of the way there and every little helps! (no, seriously, it’s £10 donations as far as the eye can see, every little seriously helps).

If you can’t donate, please reblog anyway!
