I liked being a girl and i liked girly stuff growing up. It was the outside world that made me feel insecure. Guys calling me a masc girl. My girl friends making fun of me because i couldn't wear makeup. Or my family acting uncomfortable with me when i wanted to be in soccer team and take lessons. People around me really triggered my ocd more than anyone.

Yeah!! I relate to that a lot actually. I started getting boobs when I was in 5th grade and they grew faster than I was ready for and my sisters wouldn’t stop bringing it up anytime I wore a swimsuit. It made me feel sexualized honestly and I remember thinking that I was supposed to like them and I didn’t understand why I didn’t. Still not sure what that means. But I see stories of trans people being like oh I thought I was just self conscious as a kid but turns out I’m trans.

You tend to focus on the story of trans people being self conscious but with a clear vision you should see all sides. The trans people who felt self conscious the trans people that actually didn't have any problem with ther identity growing up. The cis people who felt self conscious as children and even have thoughts about being the other gender for a moment. There are many stories, many different experiences.

Can having socd make you lose attraction. I have never be the girl to obsess or chase after boys does that mean I’m gay. I had crushes on them but I would rather die then have them know I like them. Plus I knew they were out of my league so even if they did like me I feel like I would say no for some reason. I have been single all my life and thinking of being in a relationship feels so weird and scary and foreign. Like I feel like I won’t be in a relationship. I won’t look good with anyone or I will feel like an imposter. Idk how to explain it. I want to feel love but all this is making me feel like I never will.

I've been really overwhelmed with thoughts of detransitioning even though I don't want to like thinking I'm not a boy. It's been making my anxiety go up like crazy but I've never had this problem this much before, and I've always felt so proud of who I was and stuff but I don't know why this is coming up all of a sudden and I'm scared. I don't want to detransition but these thoughts won't go away. I often have feminine interests and have been trying to get into a better mindset and I feel like those things are making me feel more feminine and I don't want to feel that way.

I just recently kind of was getting over my Constant spiral of “am I a lesbian or bi?”(im a lesbian) and now I’ve been tackled by “am I trans” even tho I’ve never questioned my gender ever, I love being a woman, and I never thought I’d ever be dealing with this since I’ve always been so sure of being a woman, anybody else?
