On surgery
I have a plan to have breast augmentation next year.
This is the surgery I wanted to have consistently from before the first time I saw a therapist in my teens, and for nearly 30 years have been trying to make it happen but faced endless barriers - denial of the surgery letter that was required by the surgeons through the mid-2010s, threats by endocrinologists to end my HRT prescriptions for having it, and a spouse who actively engaged in financial sabotage of my plans. The entire time they used that I had fears about SRS and, later, regret for having it as part of some supposed argument that a boob job would be even worse for me - that somehow my response to being coerced into surgery I didn't want meant anything about how I would handle surgery I did want.
