Huge breakthrough for me [View all]

So...as many here know I've posted numerous times about my mental health for about a year or so. But last month I added gender dysphoria to my on going list of issues. But I've come to realize what I believe is causing my depression for so many years. I kept myself in huge denial about who I am deep down.

So I've talked about how my feminine side was more stronger than my masculine side. Well talking to friends and family they told me they've know for many years I have been much more feminine and I agree. I don't believe I'll ever be masculine. I'm much more into female life. So on top of that as a child and teenager. I always had thoughts about being a female and well I've come stop denying that everything I denied was just a phase.

No I firmly believe i was never meant to be a man. So starting next year. I'm going to start transition therapy. I want to be happy with who I am and who I'm meant to be. It's so scary but exciting to finally stop denying myself happiness.

Just wanted everyone that has talked to me and has cared about me to know. Love you all
