Hey y’all. So this may not be the right place to ask questions like this and I apologize in advance if this post annoys anyone, but i’ve been really struggling with my gender identity lately and I wanted to ask if yall had any advice? I know this isn’t a book related question but i know pb has a large queer community and this is an online space i feel safe in so please bear with me.

I’m AFAB but have started to express myself much more masculine and it makes me feel much more like my self. I don’t really know what this means for me and i’ve been thinking about things like this for years now but i’m not really sure where to start. Honestly with the situation i’m in transitioning feels so scary that I often just push down the feelings so I don’t have to think about. I’ve also thought about possibly being enby but i’m just not sure.

For any trans people:

How did you realize you were trans?

How do you get through first telling people, especially in an environment where you’re well known already?

What if i’m wrong?

Help?

Thank you for any and all comments. Also if you have book recs where characters are figuring out their gender identity that would be awesome too.
