worth considering: 1) even if you are literally diagnosably psychotic, there are plenty of trans people Also living with psychosis-inducing mental illnesses who have pursued treatment, and doing so doesn’t alter their gender identity 2) even when transness has historically been psychiatrically pathologized via the lens of “transness = dysphoria = ‘gender identity disorder’”, studies consistently indicated that the most effective “treatment” for “dysphoric mental illness” was to transition

This is also one of my biggest fears

I’ve been dealing with same thing for past 7 years. Trying to figure out if I’m trans or not. You aren’t alone.

Best way to be more certain about your identity is to educate yourself, for me I looked into a lot of case study’s about what being trans means for different people and how dysphoria was for them

But a part of me also feels like if my biggest fear is that im lying to myself that this desire is still somewhat real. To deny myself the opportunity to explore and understand myself better would be worse. Even if im wrong then i learned a lot about myself and my self expression in the process

see like i pass as male or genderqueer depending on the crowd and it makes me happy; then, whenever i get she/her'd or girl'd by family or friends, it makes me extremely uncomfortable at best or feels genuinely painful at worst. rationally, i should be confident that im trans and that wont change, but im just so worried about it

I went in and out of feeling like I was a trans male and feeling like I was gender queer sometimes I was only uncomfortable with being called a girl and she her, but other times it made me almost physically, sick and angry, but when it comes to gender and sexuality and stuff like that like it does anything else it takes a long time to feel like you’re comfortable identifying as what you identify as

Also, I am ok being called he/him by family even though I lean fem sometimes. I don’t have an anger for it. Or a sickness in my stomach.
