I have friends who don't believe in meds or vaccines, but thankfully, aside from the semi-regular column or photo with text they post to facebook that is directed to everyone, they don't tell me how I should live my life.
The only medication anyone has ever suggested I should stop taking is testosterone, because it might be causing more intense mood episodes. I will not stop taking testosterone, it's just something I will not consider, and my doctors won't consider it either. I would be doomed to live somewhere in between genders, a menstruating, female-shaped, bearded man. People who aren't trans don't realize this though, and I don't hold any ill feelings towards people for suggesting it, they don't know. They were just trying to help.

Underneath this skin there's a human
Buried deep within there's a human
And despite everything I'm still human
I think that I'm still human
