I did everything they asked, played nicely, played their games. - Fought for a GP referral to GIC - Waited 16 months for a GIC appointment - Answered the invasive questions - Took their homeopathic doses of HRT - Saved the NHS money by having private SRS - Took statutory declarations 1/8

- Joined their register of trans people - Got a new birth certificate - Changed NHS number, lost medical history - Had GP refuse to continue prescription, ICB refused to help, switched GPs - Rejected from blood donation because they used male thresholds - Met with MP to discuss all this 2/8

- Had 100+ hours of electrolysis - Voice training - Pass as female all the time None of this is enough. None of this will ever be enough for the transphobes running through every level of Government, Healthcare and the judiciary. 3/8

The NHS are forcing 'Sex Observed at Birth' on medical records, and claiming it's a safety issue. Treating me as male puts me at serious health risks - trans people *will* die as a result of these changes. I am made to feel unwelcome in my home country. 5/8

None of the institutions of state are on my side, they are apathetic at best, malicious and intentionally transphobic at worst. They are forcing digital pink triangles on us; even though we followed their rules, played their games, did everything they asked. 6/8

What's the point in staying where I'm actively detested and hated by those who are meant to protect us and help us? There's 2 reasons I'm still here in this country, and they are 2 of the people I love dearly. I would walk through fire for them, and so I will - but I am done with the games. 7/8
