And her "supportive" friends should have stood behind her regardless of the decision.
they shouldn't be peer pressuring her into doing something like that. That's a personal matter that should not be steered by someone else
I suggest you stand by her Hiniku.
Trans sucks and surgery is last ditch. But for many people, it provided relief and contentment.
Try to encourage her.
Her friends that encouraged her to pick a their chosen path... you should tell them to fuck off.
and for others it gave them the push into the wrong direction to know they FUBAR'ed themselves and then kill themselves
well who the hell wouldn't kill themselves if they chopped off their dick?
And if your friend is already emotionally unstable, it probably isn't wise to make such a life altering decision at this point. Your friend needs to wait until they feel like they could handle something like that before they make such a drastic change
Its up to them to decide that after, before the point of no return all you can do is be honest to them and try to have them realise the point of no return is there
Wol, what I referred to was you comment about the will or paradox's comment about buying "her" a gun
I have a very bad feeling she thinks this surgery will change everything. I have a feeling won't. I have a feeling it will bring her a lot of pain.
humor is a coping mechanism 😦
Fair enough
What's wrong with buying them a gun? Are you saying that is somehow not appropriate? Why not?
I'm worried af
Surgery doesn't change everything
as you should be
Oh dear lord she needs to understand that
Here is a suggestion: ask her where she sees herself in 10 years, what her goals are,
22 is very young. I am very different from what I was at that age, and can't imagine making a decision like that so early in life
Surgery doesn't change anything... it is a massive decision that she can't return from.
I've tried to talk to her about it
If I still adhered to what I wanted when I was 22, I would NOT be happy with my life right now
It does change come things
She has her ears to the ground
Like I said
Most people who go through the surgery, tend to be even more depressed and committed society. Basically it is regret that even worse than gender dystopia.
I've given up
It's hard to articulate in words but it does
Whatever happens, happens.
But it's not a panacea
They thought it was the right decision because people encouraged them and told them that it is...
If she cant answer where she wants to be in 10 years and what her goals are
she shouldnt do this
Then they are left high and dry when they become depressed....
So, wait, are you saying that sugar doesn't cure cancer?
That then usually ends up in suicide.
I think she thinks it will help her accept herself
I don't think she accepts herself
Paradox, I interpreted your quip as an encouragement for a depressed person to suicide
