I just wish I was lucky enough to have started them back when I was much younger. I haven't read any negative study about them and the effects are easily reversed. I agree that some children can go through phases but it isn't like they are just handing them out to everyone who walks in.
I don't know much about the system over in the US, but here in the UK it is hard enough for an adult to get on hormone blockers nevermind a child. Self-medicating is also rather common due to long waiting times and the because it takes months, possibly a year or more in some cases to actually get on them once they have seen you a few times.
Seriously, no fucking wonder some decide to end it all.
So how hard is it?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
