Like I always was so angry over the smallest thing, like not being allowed to go to a sleepover or not being allowed to go to something.
I'm so shocked that there's not more people traumatized.
It wasn't more the fact that I was going through puberty.
Maybe that people are misinterpreting.
I don't think that I didn't have a traumatic experience like developing.
I had a traumatic experience in the way that I was late or like the shame around that or like,
you know, I just feel like the way that society deals with puberty was traumatic rather than the actual experience that I was physically going through.

So if you do hear us say like girls or boys, like we are talking about the sex that you were assigned at birth.
It's not even just the physical changes like you were saying, Pip.
It's also the mental changes, that rapid increase in hormones or the drops that are happening, the changes like really mentally huge.
Like you were saying, like Moody, I was crying.
I felt like I was crying constantly.
I just felt like no matter what it was, I would just cry over it.
