just had to fire my psychiatrist before we even really got started.

found out he misgendered me during a call with my psychologist. when she corrected him, he didn't apologize. he got defensive and said he "never talked about pronouns" with me, like that somehow makes it ok?? also, I clearly stated to him during our first appointment that I am a trans woman, and have gender dysphoria.

that's not a miscommunication. thats a provider who isn't safe for trans patients. and im not gonna spend my limited energy educating someone who should already know better.

finding affirming mental healthcare is hard enough. we shouldn't also have to fight just to be seen correctly by the people that are supposed to help us.
