<div>Hello, wonderful friends and kind strangers,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Gaby, and I’m a transgender woman who spent decades repressing my true identity out of fear, stigma, and self-doubt. That repression finally culminated in a mental health breakdown that began in my youth and peaked in my late thirties—derailing both my career and financial stability. For the past five years, I’ve been unemployed and rebuilding my life from the ground up.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Throughout my transition, I’ve discovered just how powerful “small,” so‑called cosmetic changes can be. After experiencing facial laser hair removal, I felt an inner shift: depression, social anxiety, feelings of being unsafe in myself—melted away gradually as I went through these and other changes, and I emerged more optimistic, more open to joy, more confident in my own skin, and a kinder person.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, I’m ready for the next step:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Body hair removal to finally feel comfortable wearing skirts, shorts, and swimwear again
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Because these treatments aren’t covered by insurance here in Switzerland, I simply can’t afford them on my own—especially while rebuilding financially. That’s why I’m raising funds to purchase a safe, at‑home laser hair removal device. With it, I can work steadily to reduce body hair in the privacy of my home, step by step.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here’s how your support will help:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>5 CHF covers a few treatment pulses—every pulse is one step closer to relief.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>20 CHF helps offset shipping fees for the device and cartridges.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>50 CHF brings me within reach of a reliable, certified at‑home laser system.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation—no matter the size—makes a real difference. And if you’re not in a position to give, sharing this campaign with friends, family, or socials would also mean the world to me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From hiding in baggy clothes to dreaming of confidently stepping into a trans‑kini, I’ve learned that these changes aren’t “just cosmetic.” They lift the weight of dysphoria, spark genuine happiness, and remind me daily that living authentically is worth every effort.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can offer. Your generosity brings me closer to feeling whole, visible, and free to embrace summer—and life—without fear.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With deepest gratitude and hope,
</div>
<div>Gaby Orchidea
</div>
