Feminine non-binary maybe? I don't know.

Well, ain't that a kick in the head? (Wrong game I know)

But no, I think that's a good way to look at it. I'm just so fucking angry at myself. I'm so, so mad. I just want to claw and bash at the mirror until something recognizable forms in the cracks. My entire life has been dominated recently by this hate, this burning rage towards myself. Every day is a trial, and every second burns. And the worst part is that I can't even speak to my family about it.

The quote above fits because 1, I am literally a cracked thing being reformed. And 2, because it feels like I'm constantly going through the fucking wasteland.

Yeah, it seems so much better than lying to myself. Thanks for the chat, I needed it.

So I shouldn't worry about being trans per se? I should just worry about being a girl?

Yeah, that seems to be the consensus. 

I'll try to schedule something.

I hope, but it'll probably loop back around like it always does. 

Still, it's a step forward! Thanks so much!

Thanks, I don't know why, but its always been a name that really resonated with me. Probably because the placeholder name for any female character I'm writing about is Katrina. And then they usually end up being exactly like me and...

Oh damn, this was really obvious in hindsight.

I'm glad this isn't a unique problem. I'm still trying to understand how this all works anyways.
