hi im afab and recently ive been experiencing what can only be described as intrusive thoughts about me being trans. these thoughts consume my mind much of my time. i am continuously checking and second guessing that i "feel female". before this i had absoloutely zero sign or desire of wanting to be a gender other than female. ive wanted a more feminine curvy figure, for as long as i can remember ive wanted larger breasts, sometimes when i get my period it makes me feel good bc i feel more connected to femininity and womanhood. lately i keep second guessing myself when i think those things and that im "lying to myself". these thoughts fill me with so much anxiety. the anxiety isn't due to living as a girl though, the anxiety is caused by the thought that i may be a gender OTHER than female. i also have a history of many anxiety disorders so im not sure if this is just a symptom of that but lol please help im strugglin.

I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling with these intrusive thoughts! I know that they can be super hard to handle on a day to day basis. Please try to remind yourself that even if you do identify as transgender, it isn't a bad thing! Some self exploration will help you to decide what path is truly right for you! If you would like to message me to talk about this more 1:1 you are absolutely welcome to do so! <3

Please be well and take care!
