Help for Transgender Transitions

Donation protected
Hi, I'm Tími!
I am a 27 year old trans woman, I need your help to complete my transition and wouldn't ask for help in doing so unless I absolutely needed to. 

Backstory:
Ever since I was 7 years old I felt that something was wrong (other than I was dyslexic and dysgraphic and I used to stutter, too). The kids at my school always bullied me because I acted like a girl but I never hit back as I hated violence. I never liked the things boys usually like. At my work I always get asked by my colleagues why I've got long hair, why I haven't got a girlfriend. I feel lost and desperate and I hate the fact how I constantly have to defend myself.


Why it's so important:
Moving forward in my transition is a necessity for me to live a happy fulfilling life. It's important for my mental health as well as my personal safety. Violence against trans women is unbelievably common and disproportionate to the rest of society. Blending in is sadly my best option for personal safety. Being stuck where I am in my transition is not just superficial, it has effects on every facet of my life. 

 
What your donations will help with:

•HRT(hormone replacement therapy), this is fairly complicated but involves blocking or keeping my body from producing testosterone(male hormone) and supplementing my bodies natural estrogen(female hormone) production. HRT is extremely expensive and is not covered under my insurance. This is very important part of the transitioning process. Most Priority !
•Electrolysis, the process of removing male hair pattern growth permanently. A thin needle electrode is inserted into the hair follicle and destroys it for forever. This procedure is very expensive and is not covered under my insurance. I would be getting the procedure done on my face only. 
•Bottom surgery, the process of turning my current genitals into a vagina. Again this is very expensive, even more so than top surgery. It's most likely not possible for me but I wanted to be honest about what all goes into a complete transition and how costly it actually is. 
 

My thoughts about my transition and a short message of gratitude:

 t's frustrating and truly mortifying for me to have to ask for help in regards to my transition. The fact that I am unable to fund it myself is spirit breaking. I would never ask for help if it wasn't absolutely necessary. I worry very much about my mental state and wellbeing as does my family, coming out as transgender seemed like opening my eyes for the first time. I was so happy to finally live as my authentic self, realizations of how costly a transition is sobered me quickly though. It sucks having to ask for help, but I've learned it's OK to ask for support when you need it. 

If you have already donated thank you so much, i couldn't possibly articulate how grateful I am so I won't even try. Just know that you've left a lasting positive mark on my life and you've changed my situation from bad to good. Thank you!-Tími  XoXo
