Finding Detrans Support Groups
Most people who write about detransition say the hardest part is discovering that, once they stop identifying as trans, the cheering stops too. “There’s virtually zero support for detransitioners… transitioning back leaves us exposed, vulnerable and completely alone.” – MadxWolf212 source [citation:002e3276-edb4-4f19-935f-5cf504544534]. Because formal organisations are rare, almost every group begins as one person deciding to build a space.
Online Communities You Can Join Today
A few small, friendly spaces are already running and happy to accept new members:
- A bilingual Discord server created by HazyInBlue welcomes both trans and detrans people with no pressure to praise medical transition. “Reflection on problems, regret etc. is very common… you are more than welcome to talk to us.” – HazyInBlue source [citation:37e09249-4bcc-47da-8d05-dec49dcafe5b].
- A Russian-language chat for detrans women (about 20–30 members) trades paperwork tips and emotional support; ask skysnejok for a private invite. “I can send you a RU chat for detrans people in DM… you are not alone.” – skysnejok source [citation:1d46b76e-ac59-428d-8f2c-3dae364867f8].
- Informal UK-centred networks exist for women who desisted; CheneMoyen will put you in touch if you message her. “I’ve met tons of awesome women who have made that leap… please PM me and I’ll try to connect you.” – CheneMoyen source [citation:2869c508-5696-4508-a990-e2ca96edb429].
Starting Your Own Local Group
If nothing nearby exists, experienced voices encourage you to be the organiser: pick a neutral venue (library room, café corner), post invitations in general women’s groups or university bulletin boards, and keep the first meeting small and conversational. “Maybe you could start something like a detrans support group in your area… banding together may encourage more to come to terms with what happened to them.” – Tshaika source [citation:5ff3884f-dc23-4455-8a82-aecef0016f32].
Male Detransitioners
Men who detransition report almost no male-only spaces; the few contacts named are individual bloggers rather than groups. “There’s nowhere near as much help for a detrans male, almost none in fact.” – messengerfromhades source [citation:08969119-ca8f-40b0-928c-c0efe45ff9e5]. Mixed-gender Discords or starting a fresh group remain the best options.
Key Take-away
Support is scarce but not impossible to find: join an existing online room, ask for a private introduction, or create a simple local circle. Each small step chips away at the isolation and proves that living comfortably without labels is both possible and shareable.
