I'm sure this question has been asked a billion times but I need help Talking to my family. I am a bio female and I know that I don't identify as female and I am really uncomfortable with female pronouns, that being said... They know that I have a lot of dyshporia, that I bind, and that one day I want to have top surgery and they tell me they love me no matter what, then turn around and tell me to just get over it. They always ask me if I'm going to go on hormones, and if I'm going to become a man (I have told them I'm not trans as I'm not sure if I am or not) and my sister gets this really disgusted look on her face and says that she hopes not as. I don't know what to do anymore... I have no one to talk to and I feel like I'm losing my mind.

I am guessing that you do not have a therapist.

It is hard trying to understand where you might fit in the spectrum without exploring all your feelings in a safe environment.

That's the first thing i would suggest you find.

If you have one make sure you are honest in your feelings. They work for your best interest but need to know the truth.

I do not have a therapist, I am having a lot of trouble finding one in my area. I am also not sure what to look for in a therapist and I don't have the money to see one right now. :(
