I told my very religious mom I'm FTM and struggle with my gender...
Post Body

And it went terrible. So bad she had me feeling like absolute scum. She told me I was wrong, that there's only 2 genders and she thinks I'm missing something else in my life.

I sent her all kinds of information and stuff that people had given me on here about trans and the Bible. She completely shut me down. She told me that she's aware there are different theories and views on the Bible and the meanings. But she believes what she believes which is that there are only 2 genders and it's a sin to mutilate your body. She didn't want to talk about it at all with me. She continued to make me feel as though I'm an embarrassment for her if I were to transition.

I felt very low and lost. I had to shut it all down because I simply couldn't take it anymore. At the time I was 2 months on T (unknowingly to her) and I'm now 4 months on T. I keep saying I just want a few more changes and I'll stop the T, but the truth is I want to fully transition.

Is there any hope I can get her to open her mind and her heart? I can't decide if she's more upset because it's against her religious beliefs or if it's because she's embarrassed of me. Either way, I'm not sure what to do. We haven't spoken about it anymore since our big blowout at the end of July.
