Maxie's Transition

Hi all, I'm Maxie; or, some of you may know me as Max. Thanks for taking the time to read and support me in this journey :)

My transition began in January 2021 when I finally put the pieces together for myself. While I've been socially transitioning since then, I have yet to commit to a medical transition. Among the myriad reasons for the delay–social, financial, and otherwise–is my mental health journey. I wanted to reach a place of relative stability before I embarked on more expensive and exhaustive parts of a medical transition. While I have made significant progress there, I recently had to leave my job for similar mental health protection. Wanting to begin the next steps of my transition to bring myself some peace in life, coupled with being between jobs, everything points to my need to begin saving for my future.

Anything raised here will be banked for the medications, surgeries, and aftercare associated with my medical transition, while also helping me make ends meet along the way. With leaving my job, I have also lost insurance, so these funds will also cover payments for my antidepressants.

Thanks again for helping me make this possible; I've denied myself contentedness for long enough, and it's time I make some moves to take care of myself again. All my love <3
