This is similar to what I thought. I’ve seen a lot of people really reluctant to accept dysphoria that’s almost always stemmed in like, believing there’s a right process to be trans explicitly so they can deny that belief to people they don’t want to be trans, so this could be a good first step but that mindset may prove to be toxic down the line; only time can tell.
You can see similar stuff in all the cis people eager to dictate that you should avoid accepting your own transness because, of course, you wouldn’t want to be trans if it weren’t something dictated to you by someone else who wasn’t biased in how you feel and…etc etc. Cis people are weird about that stuff and it’s become genuinely more rare that they don’t try to find ways to weasel in their discomfort over it in language of care these days, which is a constant difficulty to navigate.
I would say, get care at your own pace, and don’t go backwards just to follow the process dictated to you by others if it’s not what you want; more often than not whether they accept you is already decided regardless of the avenue you take for it.
Best of luck with everything. It’s a rough journey, but one you kinda have to take in the end.
