Did I give myself dysphoria?
questioning 16, really want to be boy but I have many signs I’m not.
-I never really had signs as a child, not anything that truly counted, I never felt anything, no emotions, I was always very blank. I feel like I only have dysphoria because I want to have it so I can be a man, I probably secretly don’t even want male parts and I just wish I wanted it.
-I have really bad thoughts that I’m girl, that i’m faking, that if I find a girl pretty I’m secretly envious of her and if I‘m envious of a man, I’m just attracted to him, I don’t want it to be true but it feels so real
-i want a man’s body but I’m afraid it wouldn’t look or feel right because I don’t deserve it
-I become sexually aroused at the idea of being forced to be female/people being transphobic to me, if I was a real man, I wouldn’t feel that way. i have an odd thrill of seeking people that won’t treat me nicely because when people gender me correctly, I feel guilty for feeling comfortable because I think it means I must only have social dysphoria and I’m faking. I also feel guilty if I’m not dressed like a girl and I like it, my parents force me to wear bras that make my chest look big so I’m also not used to hiding my chest.
I always see cis girls say “they hate their boobs” or are ”scared of sex” and that makes me even more afraid I’m just a confused girl
i do try to force myself to be a girl sometimes and it does work if I convince myself girls can want to be boys too
