Dear Max:

I hope your therapy helps and that you can see your therapist more often.

One comment: because wearing boxers and such makes you so happy only for “a few hours (sometimes a day or two) and then the excitement wears off”- better not do a biological transition until you gain enough insight through therapy and over time, insight that is needed to evaluate such a big investment and physical ordeal as transitioning.

You wrote: “I just want to snap out of this”- I can relate a whole lot to wanting to “snap out of” this and that.  If only I could. Instead, I have to take the long road, the patience required with a long journey. I imagine you have to do so too, take the long road, being patient with the process.

I would like to read more from you, the origin of your anxiety and depression, when did it start… your experiences of early childhood.
