quirk [GG], hrt, meds, mh

mom seems convinced that our meds (or the fact that we stopped a puberty blocker—though we still take spiro) have the potential to be the root of our mh problems lately. but idk, im not convinced? maybe testosterone is fucking with our mood, but... were happy with our body, more lately than we had been in months. fucking with that by switching around hormones or bringing back the blocker (which we dont want for personal reasons!!) sounds... a lot riskier than working through mh issues with the hormones in our body now, which in every regard, we are happy with.

maybe mom thinks im afraid to admit to professionals that my mh has been sucky? that really isnt true; i talk to my psych about shit all the time. i just dont think that an endocrinologist i speak to twice a year has any way of knowing what our body needs more than i, someone who lives in it each and every day, do.

i dont know if thats immature, since endocrinologists have a lot more scientific experience and understanding. they could point to the data that my hormones lead to bad mh, if there were any. but like.... i have the lived experience of being myself, and i dont think i could ever trust the decisions of someone who doesnt know what my each day looks and feels like over my own.
