🧵 looking back at the last year since #detransawarenessday last year I was alone and didn’t have anyone as support who knew what I was dealing with.

Looking back at my timeline, I was never happy before I transitioned, when I bought the lies I had a glimpse of hope in me. But while I lived in that lifestyle and everyone lied to me while I lied, I was dying inside and I didn’t know it. It wasn’t until I was forced to leave the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

After hitting rock bottom and dealing with alcoholism, I worked to fix my life and realized if no one would speak for me, that I would need to speak for myself and others.

I took a big step in my life and came out publicly as a detransitioner, and one of the few males speaking… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

But one this last year I’ve had the pleasure to meet more detransitioners like myself and I am grateful to have made great and awesome friends.

@catcattinson was the first detransitioner I got to meet and she has been a good friend since we’ve meet.

@ShifterofShapes was the first male detransitioner who I had the pleasure to meet and hang out with. Meeting him gave me hope that I am not alone in this fight and I’m glad to have him as a friend.

@ChoooCole since getting to meet her, her and I have been great friends who support each other when we are in person.

Chloe has seen me at my lowest point when I have been hit my reality about the harm I’ve been through and I am grateful to her for everything she’s done to help… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Finally since meeting Chloe, we have shared many moments of laughter and sadness but we also know how we both feel due to what we’ve been through.

@detransaqua is another good friend of mine, who I have the pleasure of meeting. We have had a ton of great memories since meeting each other and I am proud to be her friend.

I’m the short time we’ve meet each other, we’ve been able to support one another. She just like all the other detrans women I’ve been able to meet, have a huge heart even though she’s been hurt.

Prisha as your friend, I will always be there to help support you no matter what you go through. We all know how hard this is and I’m glad to have you as a friend who I can always depend on.

@onedonebun as much as I give you a hard time either through messages or in person I am grateful to have you as a friend even if I’m a pain in the butt with all my bad dad jokes.

@isopodsocks and @phloxolotl_ we recently meet in Sacramento, Ca and if was a pleasure to finally meet you two in person. We’ve chatted a couple of times online, but I’m glad to have finally meet more detransitioners in real life. You two are awesome young ladies! 😊

While not detransitioners, I’ve had the pleasure to meet and work with some awesome people! Thank you @BelissaCohen @BillboardChris @GabsClark5 and @DetransAware for everything you have done!

I am also proud to have meet Jeanette Cooper from @ethical_care, @buttonslives, @SwipeWright and @chrissyclark_ who are all awesome people who have been supportive and helpful to me and many other detransitioners.

Thank you to @redpilledlcsw and other therapists who aren’t in line with the crazy ideology of harming children and vulnerable adults.

Abigail Martinez is another woman and mother who I’ve had the pleasure to meet. She continues to speak out even though California stole her daughter from her, her courage to continue speaking out is something that is admirable. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Finally, I would like to give thanks to my Producer @dominic_pinedo. In the few months that he’s been helping me out, he’s been doing such a great job to keep me sane, and being the support that I need in this insane fight.
