Hi guys! I hope you're all well and making your way as best you can through this thing called life. I don’t know if any of you will remember - as a trans man, the waiting times for an initial one-to-one appointment at the gender clinic takes more than 3 years to reach. Well, I got my Harry Potter letter welcoming me for an appointment in December 2021 at the Leeds Gender Identity Clinic! When I go, I will be presenting as myself, Adam. I am now a few years into taking testosterone, and a name change later taking me from Miss Mia McDonald to MR Adam McDonald! And don’t forget that “MR” because it cost me £15!
