Born In Wrong Body

[Guest Amy LeBlanc]

Hello All:

Does anyone feel that they have been born in the wrong body? Where besides dressing to look like the oppiset sex, that you feel that you should have been born that sex instead.

Since I have been dessing more and more, I am starting to feel like a girl and that I should have been born a girl. I am really getting into the whole girl thing and wanting to look as much like a girl and to become a girl as much as I can where it fels like it is starting to comsoume me.

Is this a natural thing and has anyone else been feeling like this?

Hope to hear from you all

Amy welcome aboard, I can certainly relate to how you feel about dressing and wanting to be a girl. I never dressed that much but the few times I did simply opened the flood gates to what the real problem is. Once i got started on the transition track many things started to make sense and peices of my life, like the peices of a puzzle, started falling into place. If you think you are transsexual you might want to look up a gender therapist in your area and start talking to them. They have the skills, knowledge and experience to help you along this treacherous road.

Amy,

My feeling is that cross-dressers can often be considered in two categories or groups. Those who cross dress and that is all they desire to do, for whatever reason. And those who cross-dress and may have some thoughts on transgender possibilities for themselves, but choose, for whatever reason, to go no further.

I would guess that there are cross dressers in both groups that want to present in public and there are those who don't.

I also believe that for some people, upon learning more about who they are and what they feel, cross dressing may only be a step on a longer journey; as some recently here have determined for themselves. Just as some have determined that cross-dressing is all they need.

As Johanna has suggested, you probably should contact a therapist who can help you determine what you feel you are and help you decide what you need to do to reach that goal.

It's a big world and there are lots of possibilities as to how you can express who you are and be happy and comfortable with it. It's just something that you have to learn about and decide. (and sometimes even no decision is a decision of sorts).

Just know, we'll all support you whatever you do.

Hugs

Hello Amy and welcome to Laura’s!

There are so many different variations of being TG that one never really knows until they get some advice – for me, that was seeing a GT. I’ve always thought that I was a woman, but didn’t realize where I was on the gender spectrum until I sought out a GT to help me find out who I truly was.

I’m not saying that my way of dealing with being TG was the only way, but I feel that I made the right choice in seeing someone who could help me sort things out!

There are quite a few stories here at Laura’s and you will be right at home!

If I can help, feel free to PM me –

Hugs! - Kayleigh

[Guest Amy LeBlanc]

Thank you all for all your advice.

I have been seeing a therapist to help sort things out and my therapist has stated to also look into the online cross dress forms and talk to others in the community.

When I first started posting I was extermily nervous, bit now I am feeling extermily comfortable and like all the post and it is helping me out as to who I am and that I like to dress and at first I thought I was just a straight guy who liked to cross dress, but now it is getting more and more in me to dress all the time and to become more like a girl and to become a girl.

I also want to go shopping for gilrs clothes but I am afraid to go out shopping due to the stairs, and I am afraid to shop online now due to myself having to live back at home with parents because how I just got done going through cancer treatment and I do not want my parents to know.

Any sujestions on what I should do, the only clothes I have is what I have had before my cancer. I want to dress more and more and I am feeling like that I am not a cross dresser any more and that I am moving into transgender and want to become more of a girl and want to look for a boyfriend and to be all girl but afraid of my parents finding out right now.

Hope to hear back

Hey, Amy, I'm so glad you're feeling comfortable opening up a little here. It takes a while, but once you find that you are accepted and find

friends who understand you, its such a great feeling that you want to share everything. Happened to me too!

I have a couple of suggestions concerning your questions. First, most department stores with multiple floor must have either escalators or elevators,

so I would hope you could get around. Or find stores that have only one floor. If you want to shop online, you could either have things delivered to

a trusted friend, or do what I did and open a post office box in one of those commercial mail box stores.

I know also how you feel about the realization that you are not "just" a crossdresser, and that who you really are is a woman. But you really need to

see a gender therapist before you will know for sure. I hope you are able to do that. I too started out thinking I was a cross dresser, but after months

of therapy and talking to my wonderful friends here, I am certain now that I am a woman and plan to transition sometime soon.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or concerns. I wish you the best.

HUGS

[Guest Amy LeBlanc]

Thank you Carolyn Marie for advice. I am in remission now and have been for 1 year. So I can get around and walk and jump and also take elvators and escalators.

I just want to go out and shop, and not feel like I am being rediculed.

I also want to go to Victoria Seceret and go shopping in there.

My biggest fear is the social norm and what society has to think about and the stairs of people looking.

But well hope to hear back.

Amy

Amy, it is perfectly normal, and perfectly fine. But you have to ask yourself, and find out, is it only a temporary feeling or a feeling you always feel?

The feeling consuming you, of wanting to be a girl, might show you are more than a crossdresser. To find out exactly who you are in life takes time, effort, and an open mind.

Carolyn Marie is totally right- a therapist is a great idea. find one who you can trust and speak freely, and feel comfortably with. If, of course, you can find one. But that is one of the beginning steps to finding the answer within yourself.

I wish you luck sister .

Amy , Sweetie I know for certain I was born into the wrong body. I have very little ,if any interest in male activities.I would rather be with my sistres or brothers ,who feel the same way. At work I perfer the companionship of the GG's over males. I feel we have more in common. most of the time I think of myself as a female. LOL Brenda Lee

[Guest Amy LeBlanc]

Thank you all.

I have always felt like a girl but showed very little interest because I have been trying to hide it, but just recently since I have been seeing a therapist and talking to my therapist about me dressing and how I started out slow and hiding it alot that just recently it has become more comsouming me to dress and to become more of a girl and want to try living like a girl full time.

But well this is how I feel.

Thanks all
