@18,000 is what it has cost so far to just be me.
Electrolysis: 119 Hours $7,715
Nose & Nipples: $6,700
Doctor: $510
MMPI test: $200
Hair: $1,000
Eyes: $400
Therapist: $675
Transportation to Phoenix $800
This does not include clothing and makeup.
So far this is the best $18,000 I have ever spent, I would never have thought I would ever spend that much money on my self, I don't think I have spent that much all my life, I never would buy myself much before.
This year I am looking at around $25,000 maybe more if I can manage it and it does take management, what and when I can do things is all controlled by the money flow, money makes the world go around.

Honestly when I hear people brag about how much they have thus far spent on transition, it is as though you are somehow special for doing so.
ReplyDeleteThose who are serious about transition all have to spend this kind of money - why advertise?
There are some of us out here who are not as fortunate to be able to afford all of this but yet we need to still transition. As for myself I barely can afford homones and therapist let alone electrolysis.
Let it be known - this bragging hurts others who cannot afford it and yet need to transition just like you. Yes I am jealous...and feeling low because being buried under debt and responsibilities - I cannot transition like I need to merely becasue of money
I know you're not rich, Susan, and I know the sacrifices you have to make to accomplish this task. I haven't had to spend nearly as much as that, and I consider myself thankful to have had done what I've done thus far. I have so far to go with the big surgeries and may never get there. Glad you're making it work!
