    I'm just wondering if anyone else gets this, it's really confuzzling me? I find it hard to imagine myself as 100% male, body an mind. It's very hazy and all over the place. But when I can, it's feels really good. Like euphoria and happiness and calm feelings. But a few minutes later I start to feel sick and nauseous. Sometimes it will be dysphoria, triggered by seeing my reflection, or my voice or something. But other times it just happens randomly, and when I think to myself, "yeah you're a boy" it feels really good, but I still feel really nauseous at the same time. I don't know how it happens, I think it might be like I'm SO happy that I feel sick, or maybe it's the shock from my brain truly believing my mind and body are male, or maybe it's a sign that I'm on the wrong path/doing something wrong? I havnt ever heard anyone else experience this, wondering if you wonderful people might have?:slight_smile:

    Could be you are more genderfluid or genderqueer, instead of all the way trans. Although with hormones and puberty, it could just be normal 9although weird-feeling) teenage stuff going on.

    Maybe it's dysphoria mixing with the euphoria you feel? If you feel that happy imagining a male body then it still sounds like you're trans to me

    it's just really hazy and unclear trying to imagine my body differently. I know that my mind expects my body to be different from how it is, but its so all over the place, I can't tell exactly what it should look like. It feels like it changes every three seconds. I think this confusion could be contributing to the weird nauseous feelings, but guess its something I need to dig really deep into. Thanks for the ideas guys!

    I don't know if I'm interpreting this right but it sounds like something I can relate to. Sometimes, I imagine myself as being male bodied like having muscles and facial hair and it feels great and I feel really calm. But then sometimes, only a few seconds later I feel sick at the thought and other times, I will imagine I'm male and I'll only feel nauseous and fearful.

    I think I get a similar feeling- it's more of an uncomfortable kind of nauseous when my body isn't matching when I think it should be. I also agree that it changes sometimes! Sometimes I can pick out parts of myself that I think are more masculine as well as wearing more masculine clothes, and then I am able to see myself male-bodied, and I feel really happy. Then it slips up and I feel like crap again.
