Heyo! Newbie here, both to the forum, and to questioning my gender identity. I'm an afab person who, for a lot of my life, was aware that I didn't conform to gender norms, and while I'm not going to get into specifics right now (I'll create a thread about figuring out my gender identity later, maybe not when it's five in the morning - and nope, I'm not up early, just extremely, extremely late - and I'm a little less sleep deprived ), but because I felt like I was already too shy, too eccentric, too anxious - too strange - I was too scared to think about the idea that I might be even more different. But, thanks to the amazing world of college and independence helping me find some confidence in myself, as well as helping a family member through coming out as bi and realzing the advice I was giving her about not worrying about fitting into the "norm" because if people didn't accept her, they weren't worth her time, was advice I was absolutely not taking myself, made me start considering all the questions I've had about myself and tried not to think about over the years. Also, that last bit about actually thinking about said questions started just barely two weeks ago, so as of now, I'm still just very, very stressed, confused, and not even sure what pronouns feel right anymore. So yay. Which is why I'm here - hopefully, talking to people who've gone through similar experiences will help me with figuring out my own identity (at the moment, I'm doing some research on genderfluidity, but not sure yet if that really fits), and being part of this community will help me feel a little less alone in this.

Welcome, Jellybean! You certainly aren't alone. Please make yourself at home, and know that this is a very supportive space.
