I don’t feel like me

I don’t feel like me at all, I thought I was non binary but I don’t feel that way but I also don’t feel like a girl or a boy, I just feel like an imposter, I feel like I’m just nothing gender wise, I just feel like a ghost. Idk it’s weird but I don’t like the feeling one bit 🥺😣

    Hi @Rose113 I can hear how hard this is for you at the moment. I can imagine it must be confusing not knowing where to place yourself but that's okay. There's no need to attach a label to how you feel because I always feel that a label feels more rigid, when in actual fact, gender is a very fluid thing and doesn't need to be restrained to a tick-box. Take all the time you need to figure this out for yourself but remember to be kind to yourself too.

    You're not alone in this and we are here for you if you want to talk <3

    Sending hugs @Rose113 it must be so difficult feeling this way and we're here for you to talk through it <3 As Orchid said, gender doesn't need to be restricted to labels or categories. It's also okay if you don't relate to any gender and just see yourself as yourself (if that makes sense?) We are all unique humans and don't fit neatly into boxes :3 What do you think would help you feel more like yourself? Perhaps it would be useful to think about things you do relate to and are a part of who you are. Would writing be one of them?
