It is worth it in the long run. I have zero idea of what happens in a trans kid's mind/body/soul. I just know that if it causes you pain, fix it. Try anything to make you feel OK.

I've never felt anything but a cis woman. But, my wife, what we call a butch, has a very different experience in her life. I just want people to feel comfortable in their own skin. I don't want kids to feel suicidal. I've been there. Thank goodness I survived.
