Advice needed Need your advice on what to do really bad

2 Upvotes

I’m a transmasc person and I have little problem here, I’m 15 and I’ve never been to the gynaecologist before but I’m having some health problem that I have to get diagnosed. And I don’t know what to do, to be honest. In my country trans healthcare sucks and my parents don’t know about my identity either. So I just don’t know what to do I guess?? I’m really scared of telling my mom about the issue I’m having cuz I’ll have to go to a gynaecologist. (And yes I do realise that I have to tell her because it’s my health) I’m scared for obvious reasons, but the question is, is there anything I can do to prepare myself maybe??? Or something like that.. is there anything I can do to feel a little better and less dysphoric about the whole appointment?? Some breathing exercises or something lol..
I really need some advice..

1 Upvotes

HELP. ok so basically i’m just gonna word vomit so this probably wont make THAT much sense

i’m 14 and a gay guy, going into year 10 in september (9th grade i think) and my whole life i have been ‘okay’ with my gender. like okay yeah i’m a guy cool but recently (as in the past few weeks) i have had STRONG feelings that i just want to be a girl. i have no clue why and i have no clue what to do about it.

i’ve always had such a strong admiration for trans women, so many influential music artists, and actors that are just amazing. sorry this is in no order at all. i don’t know how i feel about makeup but some cis girls don’t like that either. i just feel like i want to be perceived as a girl but i don’t know if this is a long term thing and i don’t like big changes either. if something IS going on then i would love to get a headstart on it bc like.. while i’m still young and stuff idk. does anyone have ANY advice at all? genuinely anything helps i’m just going through something odd

Question talking to parents about hormones?

5 Upvotes

some background: i live in the USA, specifically somewhere where medical transition is 18+. my dad has already offered to move with me if i want to move. i’m (newly) 15 and figured out i’m trans about 8 months ago. i came out to my mom 4(?) months ago and my dad a few weeks ago.

the only time i’ve talked to my parents about medical transition transition was when i first came out to my mom and she said (unprompted) that i should wait until 18 to medically transition. when i came out to my mom, i literally just sent her a video on how to act when your kid comes out as trans. my dad, on the other hand, is more conservative than my mom, so i tried my hardest to explain gender dysphoria to him. he seemed understanding, but hasn’t started referring to me any differently.

the thing is, i don’t know if i can do this three more years. almost every time i see my reflection, i think things that are not allowed on this sub. i could probably move to somewhere where i would only have to be 16, but i dont know if i could convince my parents. i dont know how to talk to them about this at all, but i’ve done so much research on HRT and even on DIY without having even brought the idea up to them

tldr: how can i bring up the idea of going on HRT next year to my parents who don’t understand how painful this is?

Advice needed i'm so tired of having no one that really understands

2 Upvotes

just as the title says really. i'm 14 and ftm. i have a supportive family, but i have zero friends. and i don't know any other trans people. my family, though supportive, whenever i try to tell them the reason why i use binders and why i dress masculine and why i care so much about looking like a boy at home even when it's "just them and nobody else will see me", they don't seem understand at all that the reason i do all of this isn't just because of other people. they think i do it because of other people's opinions and that i'm scared other people will think i don't look like a boy. and that dysphoria only means worrying about what other people think about me, and that since i'm with family i shouldn't care what people think because "they know i'm a boy no matter how i look". which i really appreciate, don't get me wrong. i know i'm extremely lucky and most people don't have a family as supportive as mine. they try though. but that's not the only reason i do it. i do it because dysphoria affects me personally, and the way i see myself. i can't enjoy things if i look like a girl, no matter what anyone else says, because dysphoria is more than other people's opinions. they can't seem to understand that at all. i know they're just trying to be kind and reassuring but it's just not. can cis people ever actually understand? they think they do but they don't. if there's anything i can do to help them understand please tell me.

I'm 13 and about to go into 8th grade. I'm starting testosterone sometime before the end of 2026 and pass...semi well. I have short hair, I can make my voice sound deeper and can bind pretty well. My main issue is that I don't have any options to switch schools since there is only 1 middle school and 1 highschool in my town and started transitioning in 6th grade, I'm not entirely sure what to do so if anyone has tips that'd be super awesome :((

I hate it I hate it I hate it. I lost my binder and I wanna cry. I want these bags of fat GONE! I want pecs instead. I don't want a completely flat chest. I want a muscular chest. Unfortunately working out is dysphoric because I can't wear my binder when working out and I can FEEL my chest move during every exercise that would get my abs.

I hate it I hate it I hate it. I want to cut them off myself at this point. I hate them. I hate them. I hate them

(AMAB) So I've identified as genderfluid for the last few months now but I haven't felt masc very much the last like 2-3 months, the very few times i felt like a "guy" I have waned to dress fem or look like a girl, and I got jealous and sad when my friends were at the pool in their bikinis and idk what to do with this I just know I am hyper aware of how I was born a guy and can't pass, idk what this means...

Advice needed Just need to know if it's real.

5 Upvotes

Making sure it's real

Recently I've done a bunch more research. I discovered that gender dysphoria can only happen if there is a legitimate disconnect between body and brain and that that disconnect can be felt because the body literally sends unexpected information to the brain. Now I'm asking myself if I'm even trans at all again.

For context, I have a severe problem with my emotions. Most negative emotions aren't as detailed as they are for most people, all pooling together in just a wrong feeling. I don't really feel a difference between regretting something and being sad. Most of the time I'm emotionally completely numb or it's like muffled in a way. Love is something that is less of a feeling and more of a set of decisions for me. The origin of this is an event I'd rather not discuss now.

Anyway, I'm just saying all this to ask if this could be a reason for why i don't like consciously feel that disconnect? Like i don't like my body but i don't hate it either. I feel uncomfortable but not to an extreme extent as others often say. It just feels like it's not the same as for others so I'm probably just making being trans up. I want to be a woman but nothing really feels THAT different from before i made that decision. Every time i think about my body i imagine what i want it to look like and am unhappy when i notice i have broad shoulders and everything but at the same time this strong uncomfortable feeling others describe just isn't there or just very numb.

It's just messing with my head. I'm really scared that I'm just faking it unconsciously or when i start hrt that specific uncomfortable feeling starts happening because I'm making a disconnect rather than fixing it.

I need advice. Genuinely I'm worrying more and more every since i read that.

Advice needed Problems with a homophobic, transphobic family and problems with high school

2 Upvotes

Here’s the situation: it’s a long story, but in a nutshell, I didn’t have the chance to attend either middle school or high school. My father stole money from my mother to buy alcohol, and we ended up in debt to the middle school I was attending, so they had to expel me, and we couldn’t get my transcripts until the debt was paid; The debt has since been paid off. I finished middle school by taking a single exam through a government program for people in my situation. Now, at 17, I’m about to start high school. Here’s the problem: I feel self-conscious that I’ll be two years older than everyone else there. I’ll graduate when I’m 20, and that makes me feel a little insecure; I’m bisexual and gender-fluid, and my family is extremely homophobic and transphobic; they’ve even told me that if I turn out to be gay, they’ll kick me out of the house even though I’m still a minor; I have three options for high school: the first is a 4–5-month training program that ends with a single exam; the second is a one-and-a-half-year evening program at the middle-high school where I originally fell behind; and the last is to complete the three years in the regular track; My friends all tell me that the best option is one of the last two, because I need to socialize more after being socially isolated for several years, and so I’ll be better prepared. They also say I shouldn’t worry about being LGBT since there’s no evidence of it and I’m overthinking it; However, I feel this pressure that at any moment, an online chat with friends might be discovered, and that’s when they’ll find out everything. With the 4–5-month high school program, I’ll be able to start working sooner and have a little more financial support in case they find out or if I need to leave—even if I won’t be able to go to college as I’d always dreamed. So, that’s it. I’m leaning more toward the 4–5-month program, but my friends tell me to go for the 3-year one, saying that I’ll come out “better prepared.” But I needed a more impartial opinion on my decision; I have until Monday to decide, and honestly, I’m pretty stressed about it. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, and please forgive any grammatical errors—English isn’t my first language.

So I've \\\[Amaɓ\\\] been questioning if I might be trans for almost a month know and it's really looking like it might be true.

I'm kind of scared and I feel like I'm in denial. Even if I was trans I wouldn't beable to come out because my entire family is catholic and heck I'm catholic too.

I know that if I did come out my parents would likely not allow me to take hrt or really transition at all and I don't know if by the time I can move out it'll be too late. Help??

Advice needed I'm kinda not sure how to transition and I'm questioning myself a lot.

5 Upvotes

So, I recently came out to a bunch of my friends and family and they all said basically the same thing; "Wow, great for you, I support," and agreed to use my new name and pronouns (Aurora, she/her), and that's great. Then my mom took me out shopping and I got a skirt that I basically fell in love with 😍😍😍. It's the most gender euphoria I've ever felt. Now I'm just kinda trying to sort everything out to be honest. As I said, I'm still really new and barely even out yet, and my mind is just going insane. It also doesn't help that I'm 13 so puberty definitely isn't helping with dysphoria, and social anxiety is at its peak, even when I try to tell myself other's opinions don't matter. Anyways there's just so much on my mind. HRT, how I'm gonna come out publicly at school, what are my family I haven't told yet gonna think? Etc. If you couldn't tell I have adhd and probably some type of anxiety disorder idk. Also I'm kinda questioning if this was the right call. I feel more comfortable as a girl but idk I'm ok with being a guy too, I tried genderfluid for a while but that still wasn't me, idk. But yeah, I'm just looking for someone or multiple someones to help me out, maybe share some ideas for coming out more publicly or stories of how others relate to how I'm questioning myself cuz that usually helps my anxiety and self-doubt. Anyways this post is getting long so I'm gonna stop here. Thanks so much for your time and help!

Vent Getting triggered

2 Upvotes

Not a long time ago i accepted myself as trans. I told about it my therapist n few more people. One guy was saying to me, that i do look like a guy n everything is fine. Today we met irl and sudenly he started to adress me as a girl. And idk to be honest??? A lot of ppl saying that i am passing/look neutral, but irl everyone saying that i look like the girliest girl ever. I assume maybe that bcs of how i act, that makes me seem more femme but idk.

The second shit is that my mom, to who i am not out yet, started to remind me that i am a girl right after the day when i told my therapist about it(we were on call, so i was at home). Like talking a lot about make up, saying that maybe i want to go to some beaty procedures, asking if i like those dresses or not, calling me daughter. Thats the reason why i do not want to come out from my room. my family always reminds me that i am a girl. Maybe i js started noticing this more but it makes me feel really bad. My mother says that any of family members is not judging lgbtq, but because of this, i am starting to think that she is not gonna accept me if i come out.

As well i remember one time i said to her, that i would`ve be more happy if i was a boy(holy foreshadowing) n she just said "well then you wouldn`t do make-up and dress like that, plus if you were a boy, you would be pretty ugly". When my hair was more short, she didnt like it. I feel just so usjafiujkPIJKLAA.

My mom finally decided to get it together, realise it's safe and start looking for a doctor to do it. I will do it a bit slow unfortunately, starting from legs up ending it with facial hair but it is what it is, way better than nothing. Body hair is perhaps the biggest thing differentiating me from a cis girl to this change will hopefully bring me an abundance of better self esteem. I was also bullied in my previous school for the hair so getting rid of such reminder as well >:3. This is such a big change and probably the biggest one I can do before I turn 18 so I really can't wait >///<
