Getting a binder living in a gender neutral dorm in college really allowed me the space to explore who I was and meet many other trans people. Having access to testosterone and being able to decide how I wanted to transition my doctor allowed me to have input on dosage and such. Watching and following my own progression. I used Reddit a lot to follow other trans men's journeys and it helped me understand my own. Getting a therapist who was also a trans man was probably the best thing. Being able to talk to some about my worries and thoughts not just about transitioning but day to day stuff who knew where I was coming from and understood. Having top surgery covered by my health insurance was spectacular.
