Hey /lgbt/, I have a serious problem. For 9 months ive been struggling with horrible gender dysphoria, but Im still not sure if I am trans or not. Most of my life i was pretty masculine/not caring, I kinda didnt care about how I looked and suppressed a lot of my emotions. I never had any thoughts about being trans, i actually hated Transexuals. But something happened to me on October 24th, and ever since i just wanted to feel more and more like a girl. I came out to just my mom but i keep retracting it, because I'm not sure if I want to be seen that way. Im not sure if Im trans. Ive already started hrt, 2 weeks in, but right when i started most of my dysphoria went away, now I'm scared that Im not trans. Im absolutely frantic and I cant stop crying about this all. I cant decide my path and have absolutely noone who understands.
Just, I know what I said might be jumbled but I've cried like 3 times today and I need help.

This is normal. You're trans. Don't get hung up on the "I wanted a vagina when I was 3 years old" narrative.

Why would this come about so late tho without feelings toward it before though?
And what if i come out but Im not really trans.

Nah, it's often the case that it's a subconscious thing and only comes up at around late teens/early twenties, the same time that a lot of stresses and other mental illnesses arise. If you've had it that bad for several months, to the point of starting HRT, then it's not a phase. And often people experience an initial drop in dysphoria upon starting because you're subconsciously relieved progress is being made. What happened on Oct. 24, anything in particular?

I don't remember any thoughts about wanting to be a girl before age 19. I'm on HRT now and pretty satisfied. I just try not to think about the "what if I'm wrong" things. Also, I think it's very unlikely statistically that people regret going on HRT / starting transitioning so that comforts me. The thought of going back to T horrifies me even if I don't pass yet and I'm pretty sure people can notice my boobs.

Well it was a lot of stress and it built up, and a bunch of emotional shit i dont wanna talk about, until i finally just had a massive panic attack. After that i was just different.
