      share my worries, I visit @4th_WaveNow and others for GC viewpoints. I feel less alone, bolstered, energized by the information they give me and the work they do. I appreciate more than words can say the dedication of these people to fight the battle I feel powerless to join. 2/

      Obviously, their calm logic is important and critical to helping others see what is happening. I’m deeply envious of their successes with their ROGD children. Did they do everything right? Am I doing everything wrong? No to both. But I’m still in this, years & years in this. 3/

      Some days, I don’t have a lot of patience left for wanting to change things slowly & politely, even though I know that’s most effective. It’s hard to be calm when your child is in a medical experiment! In the early days, I thought I couldn’t take another month of it, 4/

      and now I can barely remember my life before it. Two things I constantly suppress are rage and helplessness. On the days anger wins, I want to protest and scream and shove my life into other people’s faces so this fear can be shared instead of carrying it myself. 5/

      Many times, I have watched a PP video and quite enjoyed hearing her say some of the things I wish I could say. We don’t agree on everything, but I long for her ability to act on her anger. 6/

      Detransitioned people, if you’ve followed me for long you know I have your back. My greatest wish for my son is that, whatever path he takes, he look back on this time in his life with full understanding and no regret. You have taught me that. 7/

      I’ve learned to live with things I once thought unbearable. I have grown and changed and compromised, and my relationship with my son is evolving and improving. Your voices need to be heard, by all of us in this situation. Thinking of you has helped me come to a conclusion. 8/

      Pictures of the patient promote a reaction of “it was their choice”, which oversimplifies the complexities of the situation. It allows the viewer to disengage and say “it’s not my problem”. @BJontry said it well when she pointed out the power imbalance 9/

      btw surgeon and patient. I think pictures of that doctor I saw on both PPs FB page and BJs twitter feed are the answer. Let’s turn our focus to the enablers. To the money makers. To those who receive personal and professional gain from affirmation. To the journalists who are 10/

          not doing their jobs and media who won’t publish the story. Those are the people who sell a fantasy to vulnerable youth and turn them against those who question. They deserve to be held up as examples, not trans or detrans people who are doing the best they can. 11/11
