Do you want to be a women?

just an intrusive thought, men can't become women, if men were not thought of widely as evil rapists and shamed and ridiculed for having emotions or expressing themselves, you wouldn't care about being a woman or having a female body
let's work to improve how feminine men are treated

Ocd is a separate thing from gender dysphoria. Anxiety disorder only relieved when root causes are treated. So you know if you are. World is a spectrum being some gender ain't a cult. Don't stress about it get gender affirming care if you are

>>42039358
gender dysphoria is an obsessive rumination that males are evil and must be castrated or they will hurt other people

This board is honestly not a good place to get answers to this question. Too many chuds.

Do you see an OCD specialist? I'm a tranny who has often wondered if my issues are OCD related, and I've spoken with several people who have had similar issues.

Hi anon.

I have TOCD too, please go see an OCD specialist. It's not as uncommon as you think and help is available.

>>42038092
What are your rituals? What are your intrusive thoughts specifically? Do you seek to confirm you're cis or trans? This matters

>>42038092
tocd isn't a thing
rogd isn't a thing
mef isn't a thing
agp is a thing but not like blanchard says

>>42039544
No, TOCD is 100% real. Everything you listed is real except ROGD

>>42039562
prove it (you can't/won't)

>>42039567
Idk, speaking from personal experience I had TOCD but in reverse, I wanted to transition but feared I was cis constantly and always looked for signs to disprove I was cis. Every time I 'found' I was cis it lead me to this innate sense of wrongness and made me feel that I can't be a man. That would be called CisOCD, I don't see why it can't work the other way around for cis people.

As for MEF I think it is a subtype of AGP and AGP is probably caused by repressed feelings leading to a trans person only being able to express their femininity through sexuality or it is men with an emasculation fetish and get off to the idea of being turned into an 'inferior' women.

>>42039667
sounds like gender dysphoria and insecurity/self-doubt with extra steps

>>42039673
gender dysphoria is obsessive internalized misandry
you cannot be trans as an amab without perceiving the nature of males as harmful to females

>>42039681
proofs??

>>42039673
How so? I do have GD I think, those feelings got exacerbated after I went on HRT and could actually feel things but I don't see how me having cisOCD is GD.

>Do you seek to confirm you're cis or trans?
Nta but what does seeking to confirm im trans mean

>>42039822
Basically people with TOCD (should be called GIOCD because trans people can have cisOCD) know what gender they are but have intrusive thoughts about trooning or detrooning.

So, a cis person will know they're cis, that they've been cis they're whole life and are comfortable being cis but will have unwanted, intrusive thoughts about transitioning, having a fear of secretly not being the right person. So, they start conducting rituals to confirm that they are cis and not trans. It would be the opposite in trans people. Trans people know that they're trans, or should transition but have intrusive thoughts about being cis even when they don't want to be cis; they conduct rituals to confirm they are trans and not cis.

What resonates with you more?

The latter
Does that really mean I'm allowed to transition
I'm so scared anon
I have been repressing for years not because I want to but because my brain doesn't let me transition
I feel stuck I feel like I'm unable to control myself
I want to transition but I feel like it's impossible and I'm not allowed
I don't know what to do
Can you help me

>>42039935
I was like you at some point, I repressed a lot of feminine feelings and just excused my desires to be a woman since I was 6 years old as early onset AGP.

When I realized I might be trans I wanted to transition but I always had this intrusive thought about actually lying to myself that I'm trans and that I'm secretly cis. I then found out my GIOCD habits were more similar to trans people than to cis people and that's what confirmed my belief that I was actually trans.

I wish more people talked about this, it would've erased these doubts for myself.

But yes, Nona, you're allowed to transition if you think it's right for you and think HRT will make you happier. Things will get better, don't let repression eat your life. If you find out you're not actually trans you can just stop HRT but I find this to be very rare unless you live in an unsafe environment. Just do what you think will make you happy!

>>42040016
I think it will make me happy but I'm so scared
Thanks for your reassuring words though
It would make sense that my compulsions mean I'm a trans woman and I'm allowed to transition because I want to
Right?

>>42040038
I think if you have unwanted thoughts of being cis but you think transitioning is the right thing to do for yourself and you're trying to prove to yourself that it's the right thing to do, you're probably trans and should transition. I think you have cis OCD, not TOCD Nona.

Thank you thank you thank you

You're welcome Nona! Get on DIY and don't wait any longer, doctors are pretty gatekeepy most of the time
