Thank you for posting this.
It's a long read but my god it hits hard.
had developed the “dysphoria” after finding out about gender identities online as a teenager, when I had been struggling with so many other emotional issues for a long time, and that in retrospect I must have gotten carried away, thinking that being trans was the explanation and solution for all of my problems
Living life by delusion and going to such extreme lengths to chase a falsehood steer one away from true resolution of such natural human issues. Even if the testosterone itself hadn’t had such a damaging effect on my mind and my life, the very act of trans identity and transition was, for me, an act of immense self-harm
I have said all along that for the teenage girls, this is the new, socially acceptable and even encouraged, self harm.
