    I came out to my mom a few months ago.
    I tried to discuss with her about my transgender feelings for a while now. We talked about it on a few occasions, but we always ended up fighting.
    The thing is, even though I'm sure that I'm a boy, when I actually try to explain everything to her, I start doubting myself and thinking that maybe she's right and I'm just going through a phase. It feels so wrong...
    I don't even know what to think anymore. Does it happen to others or is my mom right about me being just a confused girl?

    Let me ask this.

    First actually, I keep going through this. But it ALWAYS comes back to me wanting to be female. Always. I can repress it. But that urge comes back. It's always been there. I only embraced it recently. And it's hard. Change is hard. Trust me.

    Do your feelings of being trans or your desire to be male return? See how long they take to resurface.

    You will find your way.
