When I was in 7th grade I transitioned from female to male after my lesbian babysitter explained to me how "gender is a spectrum." Since I struggled Aspergers and didn't fit in and was weird, I never felt like a I fit in with other girls. I did tell my mom I wanted to be a boy when I was little, which only verified my belief. I had a binder, cut off my hair, went by a male name, started wearing boxers, and went by he/him pronouns. My parents were conservative but still accepted me, but said I couldn't get hormones, etc. until I was 18 (thank god) and had to pay for it myself. My bullying when got 100 times worse. I became even more obnoxious in 8th grade when I discovered Onision (I know) and started regurgitating SJW talking points. By freshman year I was calling my self otherkin and wearing a tail because i secretly hated myself so much and longes to be anything else but myself. Then my batshit insane highschool counselor who upon finding out I thought I was demonkin, confirmed my beliefs that demons were in fact real but actually very evil and how God was actually the way (this was a public school). Then she referred my desperate parents (who were not extremely religious and didn't know what they were getting into) to a friend of hers who called herself a psychologist but all she did was talk about her Pentacostal beliefs and how demons caused mental illness. Because I was easily influenced, I dropped all my SJW beliefs in a couple months and went from the extreme left to the extreme right. This included transitioning back to my actual gender. I was still unsure if it was the right decision but after switching schools and getting real therapy my gender dysphoria was gone. As my brain developed more I started leaning back to the center politically and developing my own opinions.
