(Put this in the wrong place at first.) Well, I've been reading as to what HRT is, and how gender reassignment surgery works, and I have to say it's worth it, because I don't actually like my physical appearance. Besides that my social appearance (I guess) is pretty my female with a dash of male, so am I transgender? That probably sounded fairly stereotypical and rude, and sorry if it did, I'm just immensely confused.
Do you feel uncomfortable or disconnected with your body or the way people perceive you in regards to gender?
That's essentially what physical dysphoria is. Do you think you'd be more pleased with a body of the opposite sex?
You might have a look at this: Am I Transgender or Transsexual - Teens Wonder Am I Transgender or Transsexual and this: http://emptyclosets.com/forum/anony.../147192-transitioning-where-do-i-start.html#4 The tg spectrum goes i.e. from people living with almost androgynous appearance, to styling more like the preferred gender, to taking hormones, etc. Of course the list is not all possible options. It's up to you to collect further information... You might also for example talk to a gender therapist or someone from an lgbt center, if that's what you want. I would do things I'm comfortable with, don't feel pressured to do something... its your decision... There is no only one right way to do this, and it can be fun along the way. Its your choice what you want to do...
Have you considered speaking to a gender therapist? I should probably let someone more experienced in this part to help now.
Small problem with that, I live with my parents <18, and they don't know that I might be trans and that I am bi.
Well there were others who just said they want counseling... choosing a therapist who has amongst others gender on their list...
I got it!!! I realised that my dysphoria has lasted for longer than I thought about a year, to a year and a half. I remember looking in a full sized mirror; looking at myself, and hated the way my "foreign regions" looked. So if that helps, your welcome.
