Hii-iderk what i’m doing here but idk i felt like seeking some advice. this might be like venty so i apologize idk if this is the right place or like subreddit. So im 16 AMAB and pretty sure im some flavor of trans. I have yet to come out to anyone in my life, my parents are not super transphobic, my mom might be a little but i just don’t think she really understands what being trans is I just think it seems forgien to her. My dad is very progressive and has often told me if i was queer he’d still love me. My sister being only 2 years older than me is well would probably get it yk. Ik many people are not as lucky as me to have not super transphobic family but still the idea of coming out just is not rlly appealing right now. Coming out socially/ to my friends seems even more unappealing, I live in los angeles and in what is probably one of the more accepting parts of the country. Yet i’m still in highschool. There’s a large queer student population at my school but still if i were to come out i’d be left friendless i feel. To put it blunt some of my friends are transphobic. A while ago, a friend of mine called a trans girl in my class a slur. This girl no longer goes to my school, she didn’t leave because of this incident or anything but i’m sure it wasn’t meaningless. This same friend has a history another occurrence of transphobia so much so he had previously gotten suspended for it. I’m not here to shit on my friend, i’m just trying to explain how coming out in my school would be very difficult and almost certainly put me back into another longer period of depression. I don’t think i could ever come out/transition in highschool. But im worried if i wait till like college my transition won’t be as idk the right term but like successful and ill regret it. I have already pretty much completed male puberty. It’s not like transitioning is something super important or rather urgent to me. Like I don’t have bad dysphoria in fact i don’t even know if i have it at all. I definitely have felt gender euphoria tho but yea iderk what dysphoria is fully. But basically should i wait till i move out to transition idk? Idek if i need to medically transition in my life and i think thats enough to at least hold off on transitioning at this very moment obv, but i would also rather live my life as a girl or like a feminine person so that i still think i should seriously consider transitioning with liktherapist or just like a friend or smt? idk lmk what u think-u can comment or dm me or not. but if u made it this far tysm!
