#chest reduction

In Canada, it’s absolute insanity how funding for trans-affirming care can vary so much depending on what province you live in… I’m from Manitoba, but I live in BC 11 months out of the year now. Here’s what I did: I finally switched over to BC healthcare which FULLY covers surgery and there is WAY less medical gatekeeping involved under Trans Care BC. I remember being younger and looking into the process of getting a radical chest reduction in Manitoba because I hated my chest so much (even before I realized I was nonbinary) and there were so many financial/physical barriers to have it covered by the provincial government (diagnosis of gender dysphoria by a psychiatrist amongst other things, only able to be done in Winnipeg but I live in a smaller city a few hours away) but here in BC all you need is your doctor or a counsellor involved to just say “yeah, they want the surgery”.
I recently got in contact with the Catherine Holman White Wellness Centre, an organization based out of Vancouver that does surgery readiness assessments and I am SOOOO extremely grateful for the help I’ve received so far. I had my assessment with someone from that organization yesterday and it was a lovely 30 something year-old nonbinary transmasc person who was so affirming and understanding. They’re putting me in contact with a trans-affirming doctor at my university and if all goes to plan I should have the surgery before the end of next year once I get all my ducks in a row.
I’m also on a waitlist with the same organization for a proper ADHD assessment that would cost me no money! I fit the criteria and have been taking ADHD medication prescribed by my family doctor in MB since June and it’s been extremely helpful for me but I don’t have an official diagnosis due to MORE financial/physical barriers in Manitoba ($3k for an assessment that would take place, once again, in Winnipeg — or wait for years on the public waitlist) so hopefully having a diagnosis will make it easier for me to go to any doctor in BC and get an updated prescription (while I am on the waitlist to get a primary care provider).
So, although there is some huge discrepancies from province to province, I’m very lucky that I live in one where it is easy to access transitionary medical procedures and I hope to see other provinces follow suit ASAP!!!

#eleven years of psychic damage coming direct to my brain via my optic nerve and ear canals. it has not dulled.#when I was eleven I had a self insert fantasy about walking into this show and delivering real (not devilish trick) supernatural cures#now my self insert fantasy is walking into this show and a) delivering harm reduction pamphlets modified for vampirism#and b) freezing time in the middle of that fight and calmly mopping up enough blood to display The Fucking Knife Wound#I would have stopped it. I don't care about the devil from the bible. I would have fucking stopped it. with the power of one (1) dish rag.#HE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE BLOOD ON HIS FACE!!! JUST HIS CHEST!!! DO YOU THINK HE WAS USING A STRAW???#that. okay yeah that actually sounds like a hal move. okay. fine. he would do that.#hal my og poor little meow meow I'm so sorry that they thought you did this one murder#and not the other murder you committed and successfully concealed a few episodes ago.#THE NATASHA FEEDING SCENES. WHYAT THE FUCK. her THIGH. the TIMER AND STAKE. HURTING ME. AAAA.#being human#marina marvels at life#edit WAIT HANG ON SARAH DOLLARD IS ACTIVE ON TUMBLR. hello sorry if you name search yourself mx dollard. I like this episode a lot.

sometimes i remember the hunger games and how nobody actually paid attention to what was in those books
#americans close your eyes and ears right now#i'm well aware that my political takes are way too spicy for you all#and i really do wish my media diet didn't contain so much us-centric shit#but alas we're all suffering here#and i could say that 'oh actually it does matter who your president is for us in the world'#but it doesn't. it really fucking doesn't. that's kind of the point.#oh i'm sorry my spicy takes are already starting#anyway it is wild that you all can understand katniss assassinating coin at the end of mockingjay#but get super upsetty that chappell roan won't support your favorite presidential candidate with her full chest#like come on none of you actually thought that her using the phrase both sides meant that she was a republican or even a centrist#that's just copium#you all knew exactly what she meant#but i guess encouraging people to think critically and get involved with their local elections and politics as well is... bad now?#also... why do you all care so much about a random pop star's opinion and whether or not she dares to criticize a government#like... she's right but i'm sure 5 years from now if she survives in the limelight her edges will be completely chipped away#by all this insane reaction#and before anyone comes for me... no i'm not saying you shouldn't vote. please fucking do.#neither am i saying you shouldn't vote strategically or encourage other people to do so#but if all your energy is spent policing people who criticize your chosen party because of their own principles#then there's something seriously wrong with your politics#and all you're signalling is that you truly do not fucking care about the issues that they care about#if anything..... you RESENT them#and then the same people bring up the parable of the 'unjust man'#or how it's never the right time to talk about gun violence in your country#harm reduction is all good and based but attacking people who are leveraging their support to push your party left#is not. it's not even fucking helpful#anyway. don't base your lives and politics around pop stars.#even if they are more based than you 🤷#i think i'm done now thank you tumblr for letting me have insane rants in my tags that hopefully no one reads#idk i just find this all depressing. i wish you all cared more about the world outside of your bubble. i wish we all did - myself included.

Instead of telling trans girls “nooo you don’t want big breasts you’ll get back pain!!!” literally just consider like any other advice, you know what helps with the back pain? having well developed upper back & chest muscles & strength in that area to support the weight, having a balanced diet rich in protein & fat, having access to well fitting supportive bras and clothing that don’t cause pain to the ribs, chest & back.
it’s a dual reaction to me of transmisogynistic & fatphobic fixation. Shut your mouth or drop some cash in a trans girls venmo because i know first hand how expensive bras get as you grow & she deserves comfort over your bullshit.
#i was regularly suggested breast reduction from the age of like 11 until like in 2020 when gender shit was documented in my medical record#so now doctors avoid talking about my chest like the plague#women deserve agency over their bodies & that sure as fuck includes trans women

i follow some fitness girlies on ig, mainly sticking to bigger bodied babes for inspiration since they're more relatable, but i can't help but notice that even the fat fit girlies are small-chested. and. i won't lie i'm fully a hater about it. watching them do their workouts in their cute little sports bras that would do nothing for me. they promote all these workout gear but i can never look to them for the one thing i truly need: a sports bra i can safely do jumping jacks in
#i would have less complaints about my body if i just had a smaller chest. i truly believe that#granted i would find smth else to complain about it but i knowww i would appreciate a reduction. i would be sooo good about it.#also if anyone needs me to tag this as smth let me know pls.

I‘m transneutral-transmasc but I don’t want a complete mastec, I think
I think I’d be happy if I was down to B cups because then I could bind or show cleavage as I please
Idk if a breast reduction would be covered under the legalities of being trans though or if I had to go through pretending I’m a ciswoman

the parasites in my head telling me to get top surgery are getting louder and louder
#I’m scared to bring it up with my doctor and family because that will make it real#I’m also scared that my doctor is gonna say no because I’m fat#I brought up the possibility of a breast reduction two years ago#she said the surgeons in my province won’t even consider me until I’m in their desired bmi range#so do I go on a weight loss journey so I can get my chest lopped off?#I’m also scared being non-binary that I won’t be taken seriously because I’m not a trans guy

realizing that big boobs are the reason why i have so much back pain immediately destroyed the acceptance i spent years working on about how my chest looks. lol
#now that ik it causes actual physical problems it feels like theres a justified reason to hate them. so the dysmorphia is back STRONG#and like its been actually affecting me and how i live my life. a lot. its bad#esp bc ik theres a solution (surgery) so im like. hhhhhhhhhgn#dont get me wrong i want to get breat reduction surgery anyways. because the back pain part is real and its worse than the low self esteem#but id appreciate it if my brain could see it as just that- something that is heavy and thus causes me pain- instead of Thing That Makes Yo#Look Ugly And Built Wrong And Fat#all that is not helped by the fact that i lost weight and that makes the big chest look more disproportionate#cuz when i losing weight does Not make my chest smaller just my stomach/thighs#its the same thing that happened in the quarantine fueled depressive episode i lost an insane amount of weight and spent all day on tiktok#it made the dysmorphia skyrock it was awful#cuz when i lose weight* not losing
