Transitioning with Autism: Feeling Alone?

Yes because I feel like so many of the people around me don’t understand. I’m socially transitioning and unsure about physical transition, but the thing I hate most is how most people closest to me just don’t get it.

Yes I definitely understand the feeling! It’s very isolating… but a vast majority of nd people are also trans, so it’s definitely not uncommon! That’s always made me feel a little less… strange ig? Believe me, you’re not the only one who’s going through this, even if there’s no one around you who is! If you ever need someone to talk to my dms are always open :)

I completely understand how it feels to feel like you're alone with me and autistic they have two young siblings that are autistic and they both feel like they are alone and growing up with autism myself I'm always felt alone it wasn't until recently that I was able to be myself around someone

I'm sorry you feel alone. From what I've read, autists are actually MUCH more likely to not identify with the gender binary. See terms like autgender / gendervague. Highly recommend looking into online autism communities to connect with others like you! You are not as alone as you think!

I believe I’m autistic but my psychiatrist told me I’m not. Besides that I want to get the test or something from another professional. I don’t feel that alone because I think I’m not the only one in my family
