Help Hollie fund Facial Feminisation Surgery
My name is Hollie, and I am a transwoman currently going through the process of transitioning. I am currently not working due to my mental health, and I need to fund Facial Feminisation surgery so that I can feel happy within myself and hopefully get back to work.
I knew when I was a child that I was in the wrong body and as time has gone on, due to my inability to accept myself, it's made me very unwell and unhappy. I was always bullied as a child, so I have grown up unable to believe in myself. When I finally had a breakdown in 2015, I came out as transgender but unfortunately I had already done significant harm to myself by trying to hide from it. Sadly I have been unable to recover since then as I have constant suicidal thoughts, and due to this I have lost all of the good things in my life, hobbies, friends, and my ability to work. I find myself mostly unable to leave the house and, as a result I don't really have quality of life.
I believe that my path towards a functional and happier life is to get Facial Feminisation surgery, so that I look on the outside how I feel on the inside. Unfortunately the NHS will not fund the surgery and so I am left to try and find the money to fund it privately. I know the surgery will greatly improve my self confidence and will make me feel far less suicidal and depressed. I have spent a lifetime being bullied for being different and I just want to live my life without people looking at me twice, and being the target of people's negative attention, comments and judgement.
