Hi! My name's Aeden, and I'm a non-binary transmasc individual. I'm from Italy, and I'm studying arts at the Fine Arts Academy here in my hometown, Naples. And I need your help.
I knew I wasn't just as my pairs with their gender assigned at birth since I was 6 or so; I always loved dressing neutral, with big clothes and all kind of colours. I didn't quite understand all the gender's stereotypes, and all sorts of things regarding that. But my family didn't know at the time what "non-binary" means, and also me.
When I was 14/15, the most-known forms of sexual orientations were introduced to me: I learned I could love a person without boundaries, and so I stopped questioning my feelings. I identified first as queer, then as pansexual, and I dated two wonderful girls, the first one in 2016 and the second one in 2018.
One day, I was on vacation with my parents, and by an accident I used the equivalent of he/him pronouns while talking about me, and it didn't feel wrong to do it. I started using them with my girlfriend at the time, then a small group of friends. I even thought I was genderfluid, and started to learn more. But I wasn't mentally stable at the time, and with COVID-19 and all its complications in my personal life I pushed away those feelings and invalidated myself.
Then June 2021 arrived: with more researchs behind my back, I came out to my girlfriend and friends as a non-binary individual. Then, the person I dated for 3 long years decided it was time to part ways, and we broke up. I was devastated: I couldn't eat, sleep, I spent my days crying and wishing to end it all. This state of mind forced me to come out to my mom, who was very understanding of my feelings. So, this disaster of a Summer passed, and I was officially out to everybody as non-binary. I chopped my hair, bought some binders, and started dressing more alligned to what I was envisioning in my mind.
So, what changed today? I got my psychodiagnostic report from the Consultorio InConTra, and I couldn't be happier. I also got from my city of residence all the other legal paperwork that was required, so your initial donations kindly covered those. And that's why I'm asking for your help.
Finally I've got my first appointment with an endocrinologist, it's the 20th; maybe I'll start the hormone replacement therapy, if everything goes well. With the last money of this donation I could cover all the blood tests and echographies I had to do, but there's not much left. I want to desperately help my parents with this expenses, so I'm working a part-time job (unfortunately unpaid), and a full time one (that still don't pay me monthly, it's a new company). That's the best I can do while trying to getting my bachelors degree and studying simultaneously for a master's degree.
It's not the best period for my mental health, but it's getting better. I just wish I could do something else for helping out, but I'm so tired.
Yeah, that's it for now. Hope you are well and happy, enjoy your life with all the people that love you despite everything, and be your authentic self.
I wanna achieve this goal because I can't see everyday the person I wanna be in the mirror, and I lived almost 3 years already struggling with a strong gender dysphoria and physical/psychological issues. I was depressed for a while and under meds, and I don't want to stop and fall again into bad habits and thoughts.
I hope you'll be interested in helping me: if you don't have so much money to spend, don't worry! You can also buy a subscription to my Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/asayuna. Any kind of support, such as likes, comment, and shares, are gladly appreciated and more than enough.
I wish you all the best, and thank you for have read 'till here.
