My goodness, Abel, my heart breaks for you. But it also swells in admiration for you. Never think of your tendency to "overthink" as a flaw! It's because of your ability to look objectively at the treatment you received, and to stay in touch with your inner truth, that you were able to make the arduous journey back to your true self.

Your father's attempt to fix you, based on ignorance and love, is particularly brutal and heartbreaking. And, I had no idea how hard doctors and therapists make it for people to medically detransition. There are many rough things about your story, and this is one of the most infuriating.

I hope you're able to resolve your health issues (is testosterone supplementation an option?). If anyone deserves to win a large medical malpractice judgment, it's you. You write beautifully and have much to offer. All the best to you, Abel.

Your story made me cry. I am so sorry for what you went through and the medical establishment failing you. It makes me angry these people get away with this. You are kind and brave to share your story in helping others. We are all hoping and praying for this madness to end. You are brave and strong person and know good things will come your way. I wish you all the best.
