Is this like, fanfiction for people who had shitty coming out experiences?

Or moms who wish they could sissy their sons.

It's fiction for sure. I think people like her have some variation of munchausen by proxy.

They forgot the part where, as the daughter begins to cry, a Coldplay song coincidentally comes on the radio.

Delete this. Then delete your account.

No bully please.

I think we're supposed to ban ppl who post np links lol

Do it bitch.

Hey, they actually DID delete their account, nice!

Did they? Or only delete post and his comments?

So the response of this subreddit to someone encouraging following the reddit code of conduct is to ban them... interesting.

If you're going to respond to an almost 2-week old comment, at least make sure you know what you're talking about so you don't waste my time. Moron.

Brigading? The thing that the change in this sub's rules regarding NP links over time shows that you all are starting to diverge to (starting with requiring NP links, then not requiring them but having a strong emphasis on the fact that brigading would not be tolerated, and now having no reminder about brigading and banning people for using NP links, which at least discourage it). Also, one of the things that could get a sub shut down.

You honestly don't know what you're talking about, but it's kind of adorable.

I think you're lost, friend

Ok I just checked out this sub. It appears to be a den of snakes, trolls, and alt right Nazis. I saw several clear violations of Reddit law. /r/drama users are more autistic than the average cookies, so they have no self-awareness. How sad.

20 days is "almost 2 week old comment"

What a fucking retarded cunt

The keys are right next to each other, you silly goose.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:

/u/ObiWanKenobot You're not some transhero, you're a fucking shitty parent who is letting their child self-medicate with hormones that need to be strictly observed with dosage and time taken or else could have serious adverse effects and even destroy their ability to transition properly.

You are a disgrace to parenting and never EVER have anymore children before you fuck them up beyond repair too.

If I take them away, things will only get worse. We have appointments scheduled with an endocrinologist for next week, and (with her permission of course) I've been talking to her therapist about it, and it seems she's been being as safe as possible about it short of being under the care of an endocrinologist.

Also, why would they post this on this subreddit? There is no drama that you didn't create.

There is no such thing as safe self-medication when it comes to hormones you fucking knuckledragging retard. Our bodies depend on a delicate balance of hormones (ESPECIALLY DURING GROWTH) to develop not just our physical outward appearance but our internal bits too.

Dosage even a little bit too high or low? Congrats, you run a major risk of having growth stunted for life, brain developmental problems and glandular issues.

But yea, you be a hero and tell them they can keep taking their pills because you don't want to be a "bigot".

Enjoy raising a fucked up kid and knowing every single day for the rest of your life that it was your fault and you could have prevented it.

Retard.

Again, I made an appointment for an endocrinologist. I'm not letting her continue to DIY anywhere past that, but plenty of people do it safely. She even showed me test results. Making her stop now would likely be more damaging than letting her stay on low doses of hormones for another couple weeks after being on them for three months.

She's a fucking kid, she's supposed to be stupid so I don't fault her for that. You're the fucking adult so what's your excuse?

Test results? For what? Do you think dosages of hormones are like anti-depressants where you just need to start off slow and ramp up?

Did you miss the part where dosages have to be measured to the person? Again, hormones have a very delicate balance and are responsible for promoting appropriate growth of organs, glands and physical appearance.

Fuck that up even just a tinnnnny tinny bit and that's the show. Are they taking the correct amount of DHT blockers? Getting enough estrogen AND natrual testosterone? Are they even taking the most effective hormone?

Look at all this shit you don't have the answer to yet feel utterly comfortable letting them cram down their throat irreversibly.

Good thing you have that appointment, hopefully they tell you how utterly stupid you are.

You obviously have no idea about anything related to trans health and the effects that estrodiol, spironolactone, delestrogen.

No shit you think?

I'm not the retard who actually took someone from the drama sub seriously and had to ask another board if it was truthful, which basically means I was initially correct, they're too fucking stupid to raise a child and that kid is fucked even more than he...she... it already is.

Please don't take her HRT away. Menopause is bad.

Maybe it's your super dramatic story.

One would think a truly selfless parent would be on that sub seeking advice and support from people with more experience, not virtue signaling and seeking kudos for their super-tolerant-awesome-progressive theatrics.

Actually, I did post something like that a month ago when I found out. People kept sending me messages asking me to post an update on how things went. I guess I'm a dramatic storyteller.

It just seems contrived tbh. Your account is 1 month old and was made 2 days before you mysteriously found unidentified drugs in your son's pants. Turns out they're hormone pills, which is super cool because you always wanted a daughter. Now you're mom of the year because it's no big deal, and even though it's only been a few weeks you've totally accepted everything and are so supportive your kid is even allowed to self medicate.

You're either a liar or insane. But if your story is true, I hope you spend more time considering the situation and how to best handle it.

Fair enough. When you frame it like that, I do sound like I made the whole thing up. The reason it's so easy for me to accept is that I was really into drag culture when I was young, and even dated a couple trans people, so it's like no big deal. You're right about the self-medication part, though. I'm not sure how to handle that one.

I self medicated for quite a while. A lot of the struggle was my PCP wasn't able to help me at all with trans stuff. Your daughter probably knows all of this, but for your knowledge:

Spironolactone's to be taken with food, best if done in 2 or 3 times a day increments, and is a potassium-sparing diuretic. Make sure root-vegetables, canned tomatoes, and citrus aren't eaten in excess or are paired with a teeny bit more salt.

Estrodiol's to be taken orally as spread out as possible to ensure that the body's absorption limit of 2 mg estrogen per (2-3) hours isn't broken. Sublingually is fine as well and might be better for the liver.

With both meds, it's important to drink alcohol responsibly. Almost every trans girl I know can't hold more than 2 standard drinks an hour easily.

I took these incorrectly and had hyperkalemia, massive mood swings, poor feminization results, and wild blood pressure. If she follows those rules, however, she'll probably be just fine. A consistent and balanced diet, exercise, and sleep schedule will do wonders as well.
