Therapist, gatekeeping (---)
Well, now I know how therapists can fuck up people.
Incident from yesterday still haunts me and that cis normative gatekeeper bullshit has poisoned my thoughts about my own self.
Like no trans women I know has an actual male head mate. And that combined with the "you don't have the standard trans history, so I don't believe you're trans and likely just need help figuring that out" from that therapist just messed things up
