I'm a shy person, always been. Ever since I was a child I felt like there was something wrong with me, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. As I grew older, the feelings of dissonance between my body and mind only intensified. The more I tried to ignore them, the louder they screamed at me.
It wasn't until I hit puberty that I began to understand what was happening. My body started changing in ways that felt so foreign to me, but also simultaneously like a part of me. It was as if I was trapped inside someone else's skin, watching myself grow and change without being able to control it.

As an 18-year-old trans girl, I'm still finding my footing. It's scary but exciting at the same time. I've started to explore my identity through fashion and self-expression, trying on different personas like a kid in a candy store. I love experimenting with makeup, hair styles, and clothes - it feels so liberating to be able to create a version of myself that truly reflects who I am inside.

Now I'm 18 years old, attending school and working part-time at the local coffee shop. My life is pretty routine but I've been struggling lately as I face more challenges in understanding my sexuality and body than ever before.

I used to feel so uncomfortable about my growing breasts, big butt, black hair and bangs, it made me really self-conscious about myself that I'd often get very nervous around
