Help Adam raise money for gender affirming care

Hi there! I’m Adam. I’ve been trying to get the funds to get surgery for a few years now. Unfortunately, I have a large chest, and as I gained weight due to my antidepressants it’s gotten even worse for me. It’s pretty much torture having to wear a binder every day, but I physically cannot go anywhere without it - especially now I’m “passing”. I’ve been the target of transphobic harassment multiple times in the past and I don’t want to invite more onto myself, and the dysphoria is far far too much to deal with so I just try to grin and bear it. It’s also preventing me from pursuing the career I desperately want - musical theatre. I have a BA in MT & Drama & I’m a trained actor & singer - and I’m hoping to go back into further training, as I trained before going through any medical transition (and wasn’t even out as trans when I started!) - but as a larger-chested person it is extremely difficult for me. Training in a binder is dangerous, but even without it my chest is heavy and puts pressure on my lungs - and bras are completely out of the question. I feel stuck. I’m 25 this year, and life just… hasn’t even begun for me, because of this burden. It already feels too late. NHS waitlists are faaaar too long, but the specific surgeon I want is expensive (as are all private surgeons)…My goal is to get a consultation by early - mid 2023, and hopefully have the money by then so I’d be able to book the actual surgery ASAP. Once this burden is lifted, I’ll be able to concentrate on my career for real. Please help me towards it if you can. :)
