I can feel myself hurtling toward needing to go to a hospital or checking myself in and idk what to do. I don’t know what to expect at all and I’m so scared of getting mistreated. This serves somewhat of a rant but also as some genuine questions for anyone with answers I’m sorry this will be on the longer side ….

I live in the Midwest, larger city so it’s not the best but not the worst place for me to be myself. All my legal documents and identification are all the name I go by and even have my correct gender marker. My concern is this won’t matter and I will still be bunked with men which would make me not only extremely uncomfortable but make me incredibly unsafe and likely trigger my ptsd. Is this even a valid concern? Are my legal documents (like I mean all my documents birth certificate, SSI, insurance, everything) enough to get me to not be stuck being treated as someone I am not? Maybe they don’t even separate genders I’m not sure and it’s probably different based on the facility but I’m so scared about the possibility 

Nearly all of my medical experiences have been negative since coming out, I’m really concerned this will just be more of the same. Like what if going will just make everything worse? What if I get treated like I’m just a number, get thrown some medication and nothing changes. I just have no idea what to expect, most ppl I know tell me it’s horrible but I’m rlly running out of options. Are there any trans ppl here who have any advice?

Thank you for reading all of this. I’ll take any advice or anything rlly. I’m so lost and desperately need guidance or someone to talk to about all of this
