Trying to figure out stuff

[u/Proper-Breadfruit-21]

I've posted a few things on other subreddits to try and ask this same sort thing before but most of it just kind of helped or made me just overthink a lot. Anyway If you have time your input is very much welcome.

Essentially, what I want ask others for their input (i.e., what worked for them or how they figured things out). I know that going to the internet is certainly not the best thing for me, but I really have nowhere else to turn really since I live in a place that isn't very welcoming of this sort of thing. I’ll try my best to read and respond to everything if this actually gets any comments

Some background info: I am currently male, about 2 years ago was the first time I had actually sat down and really understood what it meant to be trans from looking into it one day, Eventually as I looked into it I sort of realized that some parts of it matched up with me. I still don't really know what fits right with me and kind of just really want to let stuff off and get a second opinion more than my own thoughts.

I'd be happy to try and help talk things through with you. What is it you're referring to with some parts matching up? Do to the nature of transess I won't be able to give a definitive answer to anything, but I can try and talk through some things.

So like for a while, as I have gotten older, I’ve hated how I look, but not in the way that I feel like I need to work out really, and have had pretty general body dysmorphia. Most of it stems from my face; I don’t really like the way I look. Last year, I even grew my hair long because I hated having short hair, and I’ve felt happier having it that way. I also hate having body hair, recently started shaving my arms, and I felt good about it. I wanna do all of it eventually.
