Hello, I’m just recently came out and being more comfortable about being trans, FtM (22). I working on loving myself and building my self esteem which I’ve always struggled with but just recently discovered it was because I was trans and suppressing myself. I grew up with a family who didn’t really support behavior that wasn’t aligned with me being a “girl”. They felt more comfortable with traditional ways of living and behavior. I knew of trans people existing since middle school and never had anything against them. If anything just curiosity because I wanted to know how they knew so I could understand my own feeling. But now that I’m my own person and have my own thoughts. I’m finding myself having to battle the thoughts that being trans is wrong from what my family fed me. I see other trans people and I think they are beautiful and handsome and just amazing people. But that I could never fit into that. I’m trans. But I’m not a good trans. Like how can there be a good or bad trans. Why am I so stuck on these thoughts. It is causing issues with trying to push back dysphoria because I don’t even feel like I deserve to feel euphoric and myself as a man. Is there anyone that felt the same or know somewhat of what I am saying? Any help or advice would be so appreciated!!
