Support my transition journey ♥️

PLEASE READ TO THE END FOR IMPORTANT ADD ONS Hey everyone- this isn’t a step I ever thought I’d be taken but it’s step iv had to take. I have nothing less to loose but everything to gain.

(Note if for whatever miracle we sub pass this goal, all funds left over would be put towards my top surgery privately which is ranging from £7-10k so every last penny would then go towards my transition ) thank you all for reading stay happy stay amazing and stay beautiful

so hey you can call me Bailey, and I’m reaching out to share something really personal. As a trans man, I’m trying to access testosterone therapy privately because the public healthcare system has long waiting times that make it hard for me to start my transition when I need to. I’ve been on this journey for a while now, and every day feels like a step toward living my true self. But it’s getting hard.

This journey has been tough, and I’ve felt a lot of frustration and uncertainty. I want to live authentically, and starting testosterone is a huge step towards that. It’s not just about the physical changes; it’s about feeling like myself for the first time and finally being comfortable in my own skin. Even if it’s just temporary untill the nhs finally get to me.

———New updates—— unfortunately. 

Sadly had to raise the GFM up again due to the recent discovery of my first option gender gp being troublesome to say the very least. 

So .

I’m now looking into other clinics , prices and benefits as well. The clinic listed under this (gender gp) with the prices WAS my number one choice due to price, but have since found they are not very recommended and won’t give me an easy ride as far as transitioning back to the nhs when my waiting list times are finally over. They aren’t very recommended and will try take as much as they can and then be very raid silent about handing their patients paper work over to the nhs which could hault my process longer or ultimately cause some errors. So unfortunately im very worried about this options and I’m now very renluctant. To go down that route , which now sadly makes me need to once again increase the GFM to help cover the costs of a higher priced but very sort to and respected clinic. Knowing as gender care, you’re welcome to look into them so you know I’m being as open as humanly possible. As you can’t imagine this has really hurt as I was so close to just setting stuff up and it’s broke me to have to get again wait even longer. 

I’m now trying to work with my gp to find the next best option for the next best price frame.

So without ado here’s the rest of a very slightly edited GFM. All info from here is still in connection to gender gp that now as stated above isn’t my preferred again.

I’m hoping to raise funds to cover the costs of at least a 6 month supply of testosterone this gives me a good head start, along with a (minimum) setup fee of £195, a consultation fee of £65, and a monthly payment of £30. ( this being the cheapest option as far as private clinics go. Gender gp. Additionally, I’ll need to pay for occasional blood tests, follow-up appointments, and any other medications etc. I’ve found a clinic that can help me. (Again not the clinic I really want anymore)

the expenses  are a bit overwhelming. And I can’t do this alone, and any support you can offer—whether it’s a donation or just sharing my story, a like a comment anything —would mean literally everything to me.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Your kindness and support really makes a difference in my life and helps me get closer to my goal of living authentically. It’s not an easy ride but with all the love and support it’s definitely a smoother one. Thank you all kindly

I would also like to add that the goal will constantly be changed to lower and lower which each possible clinic ticked off the box. The goal was set with the higher clinics prices in mind ( this being to cover all other clinics I came across ) making it easier to tick them off the list and lower the goal each one that gets removed etc

I want to be transparent will all funds that are donated. and any donation money that is no longer needed or is to much for the clinic I choose will be refunded among all who have donated. I’d also like to add I myself m saving on the side so everything I mange to save also gets deducted from the goal ❤️

thank you kindly

With all my heart,

Bailey
