Only a cis person could look at the utter abomination that is trans health care in the uk and walk away with the belief that it's not as bad as trans people are saying it is People literally kill themselves because of dysphoria over these years long waiting times and that's before covid is factored in. Some of the lowest waiting times are in the 2-3+ years

IllusionistTrixie posted:Decided that step one is be the change you want to see :P But thank you and Isomermaid and Ash for the support. Perhaps better things are possible? I hate to advocate for private health care, but in regards to trans people in britain it's pretty much a must unless you're either going to do it DIY or endure the absurd waiting times. I'm with YourGP, Got a diagnosis and eventually hormones, a bit pricey but they don't have the same issues that GenderGP seem to be having... yet. The main problem right now is getting GP's to actually cooperate... they're okay with doing sharedcare for blood tests but it's always a bit iffy with them, never know when they'll decide to start be arsey about it. Look forward to seeing you in the Byob thread.

Rumda posted:how well did that work out did you just need two appointments? I'm currently doing DIY but I have had issue with supply I have an appointment next week to talk to my GP next week about how much she'll be willing to do with a private diagnosis I needed more than two but i did end up getting a diagnosis of Gender Dysphoria by one of the people from the closest GIC (Chalmers) which i guess will help in the future and at least can't be swept under the rug or discounted. In terms of GPs it really depends on the gp and the practice. I'm lucky, really lucky that my gp is supportive and affirming, with the above probably contributing to that as well. Just becareful with who you go to whilst GenderGP might be cheaper alot of gps don't like to work with them, going by british trans people's experiences. It might end up cheaper in the long run. Again, I don't know how typical my experience is, but at least with Edinburgh's branch of YourGP it was pretty good, not as much gatekeeping as i thought there would be, just make sure to show that you're taking active steps, they understood that i had concerns about my safety, which is why i'm still in boymode (for the most part).

I genuinely want to know what the gently caress trans people in Britain are supposed to do when the clinics designed to help them are at best poo poo and at worst actively hostile and ran by people who don't have the best interests of trans people in mind Do we just wait and hope to God that we get an introductory appointment before we die?

Lol at the fact I have to undergo years worth of evaluations before I can access medication that cis people can easily obtain with relatively little hassle and gatekeeping But sure the system is fit for purpose I get that not everyone is familiar with this but gently caress me man, don't tell me it's sufficient when I've been waiting at least 2 years for an introductory appointment and that I've been forced into going private and paying thousands for basic poo poo that cis people can access with little fuss Ash Crimson fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Mar 7, 2021 |

ItohRespectArmy posted:i dont understand how anyone could defend the GIC. Every person I know that has tried to use it has numerous horror stories that boggle the mind and defy explanation outside of it being a transphobic front that exists to torture trans people. Earlier this month an official twitter account from the Tavistock was tweeting articles from transphobes from America with pictures of razorblades on it. Utter scum

goddamnedtwisto posted:In fact I feel like I need to put a bit more substance into my last post. A lot of posters in this thread were *way* more aggressive in running off several perfectly good posters (including some really loving creepy helldumping in one case) for just *mentioning* they voted Kier Starmer - not even arguing after the fact it was a good choice, just saying (and even in one case *joking*) that they went against the groupthink in this most heinous way than they've ever been in attacking people claiming there is a religious basis to the child sex abuse cases in Rotherham, concern-trolling about the alt-right, or defending Luke loving Bozier. Who are you complaining about?

Jedit posted:This is the context needed to interpret Owl's numbers from earlier. It could have been the case that people were exiting and leaving the GIC referral lists at roughly the same rate, meaning that 5 years and change was just how long the process takes. But knowing that they are not, the numbers become indicative of a system that is either starved of support or being purposefully obstructive (if not both). People probably thought I was being absurdly hyperbolic when I said the UK's approach to transitioning is to essentially force a trans person to desist or die waiting if they cannot afford private sector healthcare Its increasingly clear that's the official plan. Inaction/apathy is in itself an action; the vast majority of cis people simply don't give enough of a poo poo for this to change anytime soon , even if they hold positive, affirming views towards trans people.
