is it possible to have internalized transphobia despite growing up with a supportive family and friends? out of nowhere I've started hating myself for being trans but I don't get where it's coming from, since nobody else has hated me for that reason

I feel you, I grew up with accepting family but sometimes I have transphobic thoughts about myself or other people. I realize it’s wrong obv, it’s just intrusive
