Some stuff to know first
I am a teen 13-17
I’m trans-masc, went through puberty at 9 and realized at 12 so I’m stuck in a stupid female body
Parents that don’t actually parent
I think that’s sit
(Writing this a while after- this gets progressively more and more depressing as it goes on. So, I apologize for that- also mentions topics of cancer and transphobia, body dysphoria. All of that jazz.
So just last weekend (Today is Tuesday the 7th of December) my mother, who I thought was all supporting of me called me down by the name I go by. Joey. I went down to her as fast as I could- knowing if i didn’t she was just gonna blow up at me. And when I went downstairs, she just called me my dead name. She said it like it was nothing. I tried to stand upto her telling her she needs to respect my name- but she called me a “disrespectful *****” for changing my birthname. I’m a kid with really high anxiety so I just ran into my room crying and didn’t talk for the whole day. This really fucking hurt cause I seriously thought she accepted me. She always uses Joey, she always uses he/him. But just that day she just wanted to call me it. I feel like its all a lie. I was never seen as a guy to her and I never will be. I never will be to anyone. To everyone im just a girl. Ill never be a real boy no matter how much I wish for it. Im a girl and always will be even if I say my name is Joey or say im a guy- im a girl to them. and im so uncomfortable with that. Sometimes I consider cutting my chest off cause its too big and my binder doesnt hide it. I started drinking alcohol seeing online that it could give brest cancer. Does anyone know if that is true? i also started eating less but i only lost 10 pounds and its nowhere near my goal of 100 cause im 240 pounds at 5’6 idk where im going with this im just gonna end here

Hey dude,
I’m trans MtF and was dealing with similar issues when I hit puberty, just imagine, when you wanna be a girl but you have hair all over your face. I always wanted my tits to grow but unfortunately I am extremely skinny so it is so far very difficult, although I am on hormones. When I see my balls down there, I wanna chop them off. Like really bad.
Anyway about your cancer thing.. the alcohol won’t ”””’help”””” cancer is very unpredictable and its long term, like 15-20 years drinking, and it’s more likely to cause cancer of the oesophagus or stomach, and you’ll die a painful death.
I see your mom isnt supportive and I’m sorry to hear that. It took months before my family accepted to use my name (Lizzie) and my pronouns.
Where do you live? Where I am (Alsace, France) I had to wait till I was 18yo to get on hormones. Puberty hurt me really bad.
I hope you can see a proper endocrinologist. Trans issues are serious.
Why does it matter if you’re male or female (or hermaphrodite or androgynous)? It is because of sexist stereotypes in society or something like this?
