What's The Difference Between Acceptance vs Support?

When it comes to your loved ones, your family or maybe your friends, a part of you always wants to get acceptance and support!

In fact, sometimes you desperately need a combination of both to move forward with your transition.

But how often do you stop and ask yourself if there is a difference?

Is acceptance and support the same?

And if not, what are the main differences?

Throughout my experience as a gender therapist, I have found that there are actually key differences between acceptance and support.

The kind of difference that can help you cope better if you are unable to get both from your loved ones.
