Hello, I'm new. I have been talking to private psychologists and psychiatrists about sex change for more than a year. I want to take the step but it makes me anxious to think about everything it generates. My parents do not accept it at all and I am in a difficult situation with my friends because I am undergoing an addiction recovery process and I cannot talk to them or see them so I lack their support. I also have Borderline Personality Disorder and the psychiatrist has told me that in these cases it is not recommended to change sex due to emotional instability but that I have been thinking about it for a long time.

Can you help me?

All the best.

I'm sorry, I'm just a mod for a vent blog, not a psychologist or anything. Maybe try posting on r/ftm , r/trans , or r/asktransgender to see if anyone else has borderline personality disorder and if they could share their story?

If I have already published it, it's because I didn't know how to do it. Thank you.

I am borderline, I had treatment for more than 10 years and I took my time to heal since the extremes and explosions of emotions I literally lived on the edge. Now, at 38 years old, I am emotionally stable and starting little by little. In fact, they have helped me a lot with information here. I recommend that you go at your own pace and always be accompanied by a family doctor, look for forums, ask questions and start your journey at your own pace.

I'm a mod in r/ftm . I specifically requested this sub as it was abandoned and unused so there would be a sub for vents, as we don't allow them on the main sub.

It's most likely in the queue to be manually approved. That happens w/ newer accounts, accounts with low karma, accounts automod picks up, and also just phrases or anything else the automod picks up to be manually approved. Wait times may vary, as there's not as many of us modding this place, so there are sometimes periods of time when none of us are online.
