Gender identity crisis.
The story
Why? Why is this happening to me? I really don't get it. One year ago I would have been what people called a beautiful girl. Long hair, drenched in soft makeup, and tight clothes. So why did I cut my hair so short so suddenly? Why did I start to feel uncomfortable showing off my curves? Why do I get a void every time someone calls me with feminine pronouns?
I had a dream a week ago. Where I viewed myself as a boy. Is my brain accepting this too? Or maybe it's something deeper, that I refuse to acknowledge. To embrace.
Letting go of your old self hurts, but it's even more painful starting to love a new version of you.
Hello to whoever is reading, I hope you have a good day<3

It's understandable to feel conflicted and question such significant changes in your identity and presentation! Could these feelings be an indication of a deeper exploration into your gender identity? The transition from one self-conception to another can be daunting, and while it often involves uncertainty, it's important to allow yourself the space to navigate these emotions without pressure or haste; What matters is finding what truly resonates with who you are now.
It is indeed confusing. I've talked about it with a couple friends already. And I'm turning 18 in a few months. I'm still young. I'll see how it plays out, but I'm not going to stress myself over it.
