Suski did a post on what her life would be like in one and three years.
I remember my therapist also asked me to write something one time about how my life would be like in 5 years. It didn’t influence her diagnosis last year which gave me green light for the hormone treatment, knowing she read that piece at the start of the appointment she brought me the news, which was immediately after she’d read the piece. So I positively guess that she’d already had made up her mind. I do see the benifit about writing about one’s future, especially when it’s difficult to envision how that future will be.
Now almost ten months into hormone treatment, envisioning my future is hardly as difficult as it once was, so here goes:
Where will I be in 1 year:
- I will have graduated from university with a master degree in the pocket
- I will have found a nice job with pleasant and interesting colleagues
- I will have had a number of flirts and might even got to kiss one of the girls I flirted with
- I will have founded GenderQontrast as a official foundation, with fellow Dutch trans youth
- I will be on the front of GenderQontrast as its first president

Where will I be in 3 years:
- I will have had my SRS
- I probably got another job, which better suits me
- I have found love and am looking forward to live together with her
- I have moved to a bigger appartment, though still living on my own
- I turned GenderQontrast with my fellow GQ’ers into a significant and meaningful organisation for trans youth in a large part of the Netherlands

There’s some big things in there which might not sound easy to achieve, but hey there’s still some time to struggle with achieving them, and don’t say I can’t struggle well, because my past tells you the opposite
