Hey guys, I’m 20 years old and amab, and I’m pretty sure that I’m somewhere under the nonbinary spectrum. This is a very recent thing, and I was wondering what your experiences with this may be? Any advice is helpful

22 in the next week here, afab and nonbinary. Experiences for everyone are different, no matter how we find ourselves on our journey. It was in late high school I started using She/They, and then They/Them later on. It started as a feeling in my chest whenever someone used the right pronouns. Now, I’m wondering if I may be even deeper in the nonbinary umbrella.

No matter what your journey is, keep moving. Labels will change because you change. You are not constricted to who you are in the moment. Go with the flow, feel who you are and let labels guide you to how you feel. Truly, it felt suffocating holding on to one thing after learning something more about myself.

Makes sense, I’ve been realizing recently that whenever i actually allow myself to do more “feminine” things i tend to feel a sense of comfort and happiness i don’t get anywhere else, but there are times when i do very much feel like a man so the large amount of time i spend feeling like a woman felt strange, as i felt like i had to completely be one or the other COMPLETELY forgetting that nb was an option for me despite interacting with nb people damn near daily

Surround with those who support you wholly, no matter what you are next. That’s what has kept me going. Even so, there’s no set definition of how to be nonbinary. Dress how you want, feel as you are. You owe no one to be “passing” as androgynous. Just don’t stop being you, that’s all that matters.

It could also be possible to be closer to the genderfluid part of the nonbinary umbrella!! Genuinely, don’t feel like you have to be just one. Be whatever feels right, even if it’s just in the moment :)

It’s no problem!! Late night and high with nothing else to do lol I’m in a similar boat too, constantly wondering if I’m closer to agender or not. I’ve settled on my own little thing, even if I just stay with the general umbrella it doesn’t make me any less of who I am. Life’s too short to not show kindness and support to others, even with our own troubles. It’s that which makes a community
