In most of my dreams that I remember over the past two years, I'm a girl. It doesn't matter what I'm doing in the dream - taking a test, playing with equations, talking with friends, playing Minecraft - I often have this feeling of being a girl, of being... normal, I guess; complete. But, of course, I always wake up, and that's when the dysphoria and depression set in again. It's only mild depression, and it only lasts for about half anhour, but I'm just wondering if anyone else ever experiences that, or experienced it at some point.
Quite a lot actually! I'm pretty sure my brain is all female as every thought or even dreams always see/refer to me as a girl. I always feel upset waking up when reality sets in but eventually we will wake up and be the same as the dream!
For me these dreams were as early as 10 years old but I didn't understand what it meant until quite some years down the road. As upsetting as they can be at times I wouldn't trade them away, it is nice having that dream space to enjoy how you truly feel inside.
I rarely remember my dreams, but when I remember them I'm always a man (and I am AFAB) in it or close to it (ok sometimes I dream of me like an alien and strange stuff like that but reaaaally not often and it is when I'm very tired/drunk/sick (like with fever) but that's not the point, that's just me being really tired x) )
So, the point is, I know how you feel, it happens to me too... Even when I have nightmares, which is almost everynight I'm a man in it, and it gives me really strange feelings as I wake up scared, disphoric and despressed at the same :/
Well sorry if it is not really coherent or if it doesn't answer your question, but I'm a little sick and going to bed and tired x) I hope it helped though :)
Love and hugs<3

I'm kind of genderless in my dreams. I've never really had a dream where my gender could have been an issue.
Although I have had dreams about friends and family transitioning, in very unlikely circumstances, lol.

I used to dream about being a girl before I accepted myself as trans. Now that I'm fully out and transitioning all my dreams I'm a girl, but it has nothing to do with the dream. Most of my dreams are about meeting a girl and spending time with her. Some of them are quite passionate. I'm frustrated because I'm single and have been for a very long time. I hate waking up because I love those dreams.
In a lot of my dreams these past few months I've been a girl, but also trans and out about it apparently. To everyone from lovers to security guards, lol.

i have not but i have had dreams where i turn into a girl and then i wake up all bumed out :(
I have dreamed that I was a female almost every night of my life. It was my nightly escape from my daily life as a male. A male life I filled with impassonate pursuits to distract my dysphoria so that I could have a semblence of a normal life.
Actually ever since I accepted the fact that I'm Ashley, I haven't dreamed about being trans. Back then I had the option to change sex on the fly. Completely. I just never chose male. I'm always just a girl. I don't think trans is ever an issue or comes up.
I am actually not sure I have ever had a dream as a male...even during puberty I was female in my dreams...as a teenager going through puberty I can remember that(and the feeling still makes me shudder now) having a wet dream when you are the girl in the dream is gross, really really confusing and sets off a huge amount of Dysphoria, it only happened a couple of times I remember but in each case it left me emotionally devastated for the rest of the day if not longer, even in my nightmares I am genderless or female, mostly female.
