@Anonymous I just feel like I’m more masculine….I have a very feminine body but I saw the movie I saw the tv glow and it made me realize how disconnected I feel to my body and how envious I am of men. I wish I was born a boy alot of the time
@Anonymous My family is extremely transphobic and homophobic I know I’m a lesbian but sometimes I feel like it’s so much more complicated than that but I feel too scared to explore it because of the trauma and anxiety I’ve dealt with as a woman
@Anonymous The world isn’t very nice about that stuff so I just feel scared. It makes me feel silly for feeling the way I do. Not that I think trans people are silly I just feel silly myself. I’m 21 now and I feel suffocated
@Anonymous I don’t have any trans friends I know my bestfriend would be accepting I just haven’t accepted it myself yet either
Hi, I'm an AFAB young woman but I guess I'm somewhat of a tomboy. I still consider myself a woman, though. I guess a somewhat gender nonconforming woman? Maybe that's what I am. I don't consider myself part of the LGBTQ+ community but I support the community. I probably have some gender dysphoria with some things. I love some girly stuff but I don't wear makeup (I have other reasons whay I don't wear makeup too) , dresses, skirts, but I love pink, flowers, etc. It's been kinda bugging me lately. I know I am not male, for sure, but I am definitely not a true girly girl, either. Anyone else can relate?
I believe that when I have those thoughts if they bring me anxiety and discomfort then they are OCD and not me.
I’m sobbing right now. I’m convinced that I’ve been in denial all along and that it’s all real. It has to be now. I don’t wanna be a boy but I feel like there’s no way I’m not one if I’m doing these things. There’s no way I’m a cis girl if I’m doing these things. I’m so fucking done with life I feel absolutely trapped. I don’t wanna be a man but fuuuuuuuuck I think it’s real now I’m so fcking done with living. I really feel like I’ve been using OCD as an excuse/a cover up and I’m scared it’s all a facade. There’s no way it’s not real now I’m literally so fcking scared I want it all to stop. If anyone has advice please send some my way. I need it badly
This obsession is new, but feels so much more grounded and it’s so anxiety inducing. Since the ocd started I’ve lost my sense of self and confidence. I got soocd and it slowly turned into be doubting my identity on whether I want to identify or dress masculine or feminine. I don’t feel good in the clothes I would typically wear out before I’m constantly overanalyzing how I’m feeling , it makes me really anxious and like I’m preforming. So then I started doubting if I would rather dress masculine and it’s extremely anxiety inducing and idk if it’s the ocd now but it feels like that’s how I want to dress.. that’s not what I associated with at all before the ocd but now it feels like that’s what would make me feel fully confident and loose in the world, does anyone else experience this??
I'm starting testosterone soon and suddenly I'm feeling more anxious about regret and being wrong. I was on reddit (that was my first mistake) and a post popped up on my feed and it was a cis woman saying she did some soul searching and realized she wasn't a trans man after all. she said that she was a tomboy growing up and dealt with trauma that she needed to detach from. it shook me a bit and now I'm scared that I'm making the wrong choice. does anyone have any tips to get rid of this constant doubt?
