I think I might be trans but I'm not sure

[Nope]

Since 8th grade when I first heard about trans people I thought I might be trans. But when I look back I never had a problem with myself when I was younger. I mean I used to ask my friends if I looked like a boy and would get upset when they said no. I always wanted a beard. And there were a few times when I wanted a penis and me and my cousin even made fake ones one time. But that was it. I was ok with my genitals how I dressed, well if the clothes were comfortable I was ok, but that was it. But know I hate my top and the feminine figure my body has. I mean I never liked my top when they were first developing I used to wear a bra even if I didn't have to because they bothered me but still. But I'm in tenth grade now and it's just getting worse. I think I might be trans but I just dont want to be wrong ya know?

Hi @Nope! Welcome to the Transpulse Forums. You have some indicators that may help you find where you fit or if you fit into the transgender spectrum somewhere. My best guess is that you do based on a few things. One of them being this statement...

Over time the problem of GD can worsen which this statement indicates it may be...

Since this is your first post and you haven’t mentioned it, I’m betting the parents don’t know yet but if not, are you planning on telling them..is it a possibility?  If they know, have you talked to them about help? They might be able to get you started on the road to therapy to find out more about your specific situation.  A good therapist with a leaning in gender identity issues can ask you the hard questions, give you some mental exercises to help you discern your truths, some helpful advice and information among other things.

 

Hopefully, until this all happens, you can get some very good info and advice right here.  You’ll find others here that will help and assist you along the way.  We are here to help if we can. Just know you are not alone!

 

Warmest Regards,

I tried to talk to my mom a little but she just makes me feel like the way I feel isn't correct like I'm wrong in some way for feeling this. I might try and talk to my aunt though.
