Title: Feeling Non-Gender In Between Stage
Post by: MaxForever on September 04, 2017, 07:49:59 AM
Lately since I discovered I am transgender I feel Non gender right now. Non female and non male.
I know being male is what I want for sure now because it makes me uncomfortable when people don't know which
gender I am. I dress like male but sound like a female and partly look female still. It gets confusing. So what do I do in this in between phase to make myself feel better I am not my female name nor am I Max yet. :( I see my therapist on friday for the first time.

Max is a masculine name but also kind of neutral. Maybe you can start using it?

The in between stage is the worst. Even in the first stage of starting T you're still in between. Buying male clothes and binders helps a ton. As well as knowing this time isn't permanent and will go by quicker than you realise. It doesn't feel like my transition has been going on for 2 years at all.

Thanks for the replies.
I just been feeling down I am not sure if I feel I will lose myself or gain who I really am
been weighing pros and cons of doing this I think I will be happier I don't know why I worry about what other people think though.

Sorry for posting after myself in this thread. Saw the gender therapist for the first time today and have decided I am going to go on the hormones. I am excited and looking forward to it. I am not so much worried about losing who I am I know I will turn out how I want to be. :) Just have left to tell a couple of family members that I am not looking forward to.
