Side note, my GIC therapist talked about the word "detransition" as if it inherently means something transphobic... great to know the word describing my experience has already been warped for them. smh!

When I told a councillor I was considering detransition, he was quick to suggest I may just be "non-binary." Zeus forbid we acknowledge detransition.

When I first spoke to my clinic about my regret the GIC doctor and my previous therapist tried to dismiss it and came up with the idea that it was my ASD talking. There were other suggestions but that was my least favourite. 1/3

I can't help but laugh about it a little, throughout my transition everyone always spoke about fears of people being "gate kept" because of autism, and I finally experienced something like it, but on the way back. Wish it had gate kept me on the way there instead. 2/3

There's definitely a desire to paint detransition as anything but. Thankfully with more sessions they've stopped that & are acknowledging my situation. So far this current therapist is proving to be a good one, I think they are just attempting to not come across transphobic. 3/3
