this is an educational discussion. im trying to put info together so i can understand my problem.
ive tried researching it and i can find similarities but not my specific problem and it really fucks with how i feel about myself.
its not gender dysphoria, im female, probably closer to nonbi but certainly not male so im content with myself (although wish the other gender would knock it off, i only hate my gender because of the assholes)
but this is where it gets a little more complicated because anytime ive tried to search it i keep coming up with the above answer and thats just not it. i think i read about body dysphoria where as the above is gender dysphoria i think. but from what i recall its not my problem, or maybe it is and just manifests differently?
ever play a game and where you pick out your game has a million different slide bars so you can completely readjust things how you want? thats what its like with my face. when i look in the mirror someone played with the slides ever so slightly. what i read about the closest possibility is your arms/legs look unproportionate to the body, but thats not my problem. its only in my face. every time i look in the mirror i dont look right, slightly off. like one time my face was overweight SIGNIFICANTLY. it looked like my body should be 500lbs or something (but it doesnt effect my body), my cheeks were all puffy, my eyes were squinted because of the "weight". its typically more minor differences, that was the worse case i had.
any ideas??
