Unsure about neurodivergence vs gender identity

Post Content

I’m a AFAB in their early 20’s and have been struggling a lot with my gender identity. I feel as if I have a hard time being a “woman” and doing things that embrace my femininity etc. I’ve been struggling to determine if this is because I have deeper issues with my gender identity or if this is because of my neurodivergence and difficulties with social interactions/expectations. I feel like I’ve spent a lot of my life trying to mirror the other women in my life and base how I should act as how they are. I am often jealous of how men look and wish that I had more masculine features, but I’m not sure if I want to be/would know how to be a man either. I am pretty uncomfortable with my body as a woman, but I’m not sure if this is just because i’m not very good at being one. Apologies for the lack of specificity in this post, it’s just hard for me to sort my thoughts about this. I’m wondering if anyone else has experience with this/any advice.
