##Background

• Elijah realized from a young age that he identified as male, beginning his social transition in middle school with the support of his single mother. However, he faced cruel bullying and rejection from peers for being trans, turning to music and drums to channel his pain.

In high school, testosterone therapy helped align Elijah's appearance with his inner truth, though many still judged him. Dating was frustrating as partners wanted Elijah to hide being trans.

Craving freedom after graduation, Elijah pursued music with the band Disorder, relishing the chance to fully be himself as a trans man. But years of bullying and shame left him guarded, struggling to trust partners out of fear of rejection. Underneath his rough exterior lies a sensitive soul longing for understanding.
