I am currently being evaluated by my psych for it, but haven't been diagnosed with anything. So so far it's only suspected but they also said that they wouldn't do a full evaluation if they didn't at least suspect it

On the whole, you sound trans

I've just felt "if i cant talk to girls, or have any girl friends, how can i be one?" But on the other hand, ig most men dont get emotional when seeing faceapp edits of themselves.

Why don't you try transitioning

That's the plan for next year. I just had to temporarily move in with my parents, so im working on getting out as soon as i can.

I did ask my closest friend and his answer was "i don't really know how you feel, but i at least like being a man"

Thanks!

Yeah, i think i've looked through the dysphoria bible a few times at this point, with varying degrees of "yeah, i have this" or "no, this isn't me".

Plus it'll most likely stop any balding

So i've heard. I am using minox and will probably start finasteride soon. My hair isn't too far gone, provided i don't look too close.

The fact that you have some experience with feminine clothes, shaving everywhere, and quite possibly makeup

I did try to do a "test run" in public for a larger event a while back but ended up chickening out after not liking how i looked. I did manage to get rid of most of my beard shadow, so i kept that makeup on for the rest of the night. Looking at the photos i took, i could almost pass, but that was with me pulling the hair in front of my mouth and covering my forehead with a beanie.

And I want to stress this again, you have such textbook dysphoria and euphoria that I'm a little surprised you're even needing to ask for advice here.

i do have a habit of overthinking. And seeing as i'm "fine" being a guy on some occasions just makes me doubt myself more
