    My mom's always been accepting of my sexuality, and when I came out to her as genderqueer she was fine with it. But now that I'm asking for estrogen, or to go to a gender therapist, or atleast start T-blockers she keeps saying no. I'm not really sure what to do.

    She might be fine with you, to this degree.

    It is possible, your mother, may now, just be realizing how serious you are, if you're asking to seek a gender therapist, for estrogen and t-blockers. It may be sinking in that, oh wow, this really is true.

    I could be wrong, but that isn't something to rule out.

    I think your age is important. If you are young, then youR mom would be responsible for paying for this. She might also be hesitant because she thinks you are too young to know (I'm not saying you are, it's just a common thought parents have).

    Well, I'm 18, but still reliant on her. I asked her yesterday why she keeps saying no, and she said it's because there is too much going on lately with her having no income for the last five months and having to fight legally against my dad.
