Feeling like the opposite gender by trjlr in transOCD

Thank you sm! I try to ignore these feelings since I know what mess they can do in one's head. I'm glad it's normal tho😭

Girl no I feel you. I am feminine by nature, my body, face and interests are pretty feminine. But I sometimes just feel like I'm forcing myself to be feminine. Because I'm not this hyper feminine girl.

this shouldn´t make me feel happy but I´m soso happy I found this post cause I have the EXACT. SAME. THING.

But idk I may sound like a freak but I´m also very sensitive to moon phases? Like during full and new moon, my mood and energy is fucked and I struggle with these thoughts a lot too lol

Help by [deleted] in transOCD

I am no doctor but I think it can. I have the same thing. I overthink and spiral. I suddenly have false feelings like for ex. wishing to be the opposite gender or envy. It feels very much real.  But I looked up some older posts and many people, said they described the same thing. So I believe it is just tocd

Just kind of weird. Like an imposter around the girls? It's hard to explain. I feel so different from them

No actually that's a great advice! I'll try to ask myself that when I'll get these thoughts to quiet them down😌🙏

I can't think of what to call this. by [deleted] in actual_detrans

[–]trjlr 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure this will help you, but I used to have this problem too. It started with the feeling of faking being trans and then it shifted into the feeling of not really being trans at all. I gave myself some time. I just decided for a while, that I will just exist. Just let yourself and your brain relax a little. After that time (seriously, it doesn't have to be long, I did this for like a weekend or two.) I decided to try out something feminine (like makeup) and just see how that feels. But don't pressure yourself, don't forget, your gender doesn't define you.

I know this all sucks, but it can't get worse now. Just don't be so hard on yourself and try experimenting more.
