Well, as the title says, I Am curious what Dysphoria feels like for you? When/how did you realise, that certain feelings are in reality Dysphoria?

Edit: Damn, some of you really have lived through a lot. I Am very happy that I can't really relate to quite some of the comments here, because that sounds horrible.

The general feeling of hating everything about myself that was slightly "masculine" when I started having to shave I was sad about it. I hate looking at myself in the mirror and seeing a man looking back at me. I realized that wasn't normal when I was maybe 16(?) I genuinely thought most men if they could would choose to magically wake up as a girl.
