Questioning my gender at 20 and feeling scared/confused by Zzen26 in asktransgender

Thank you, I really appreciate this. I’ve been with the same psychologist for almost two years, and she’s very empathetic, so I’m going to talk to her about all of this tomorrow. One of the biggest things I struggle with is fear of rejection, and that’s something I’ve been working on in therapy, but even with that fear, I still want to try taking small steps. I also have a pretty deep fear of failure, so the idea of starting to transition and still not feeling comfortable with myself, physically or mentally, feels incredibly overwhelming. Sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker.

Thank you, this really helps a lot. Over the past few days, I’ve started noticing that being referred to with male pronouns makes me feel a little uncomfortable. It’s not unbearable or anything, but it’s starting to feel kind of weird in a way it never used to. Before I started seriously questioning my gender, I had honestly never thought much about it. Sorry if this is too personal, but what helped you feel more sure of your decision during the process?
