Hi Aelita,

Sorry to hear that your parents did not show you understanding and compassion when you were growing up. It does sound as if the first psychologist had good advice for your parents; such a shame that they did not follow that advice.

In that era, your kind of story was far too common. But society (at least Western society) has become more knowledgeable about and supportive of young transgender and gender non-conforming youth. These days there are many, many success stories, and fewer and fewer negative stories of non-accepting parents.

I hope you have been able to find happiness despite those difficult experiences when you were younger.
