I think a really important part of the conversation about transitioning and detransitioning that a lot of people do not talk about, or maybe even consider, is the sometimes subtle, but always incredibly important distinction between disatisfaction and regret. In fact, I think a good portion of detransitioners may have confused being unsatisfied with some of their results or going through a difficult time in their life with regretting their decisions.

#I was thoroughly convinced for a solid six months #That I had given myself dysphoria #The idea seems so silly now #My childhood dog of 12 years died #And that was only the first in a series pf progressively worse things that happened to me in 2022 #Of course I was depressed!#It's just an unfortunate coincidence that I started my transition at around the same time all of this was happening #I do feel better now though #So much better in fact #That have been off all but one of my psyche meds for the first time sine childhood #The one being for ADHD which is a lifelong disability #And to think at one point I was taking a whopping 7 psychiatric meds at one point #Oof #TEB's gender and sexuality feels #Transition #Detransition discussion #Disatisfaction vs regret
