How old were you? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

How old were you when you began questioning/considering you weren't "normal"? I'm in my 30s and almost all at once feel like I'm not sure what I am in most demensions and struggling to figure out what I feel about anything. I've been married, happily for a while, which adds a little to the confusion.

I can relate to some of that. I do have some memories of being uncomfortable about my body and wondering if I was supposed to have been the other and somehow everyone got it wrong when I was born, though whatever age I was, I don't think trans was anywhere near mainstream and had no idea it existed.

Also, I think it was some egg_irl memes that started the questions. I stumbled onto it and they were kind of funny, until "Wait. Are these too funny?" This being sometime after also realizing I had adhd after finding their memes too funny and relatable.

Maybe I will end up accepting myself the way I was, or not, but yeah it is a hell of a thing. It's like I was vibing trying to survive life and someone suddenly pulled the fucking floor out from under me.
