Should I give up HRT to save money since it doesn't work for me and is having no real impact.

I’ve been on HRT for 3 years, and I really have lost all hope that I will ever look like a girl or be gendered correctly or even just be treated with dignity. I’m really ugly and honestly I can tell, people lie and say well it’s your personality that matters. It’s really not that hard to see, and I am wondering if there is a point to spending 120 dollars a month, just for peace of mind.

I’ve seen you, you have had much better results than I have had, I might have bad genetics and just look ugly. This isn’t my fault but the reality I live in

I was in no way dismissing the reality you live in, or your feelings about your body and your appearance. Only providing my own feelings about my body and my appearance and how those feelings have changed over time.

I have never posted a picture of myself on this platform and I will not be doing that, so I’m not sure how you have seen me.

I haven’t added anyone from Lemmy on discord. You must be mistaking me for someone else.
