I've been battling this question since 6th grade when I was 11 years old. Now, I'm in 8th grade and 14 years old. Three years. It gets worse than finding out who I am though. I'm helping others discover who they are. Making them think about what they don't want to be and then helping them figure out from there who they want to be. But I can't do that for myself. I can't figure out who I don't want to be. I can only help others and hope I figure things out about myself along the way. And I have. I have found out things about myself. I found out that I'm not a girl. I'm not a boy. I'm non-binary. My pronouns are They, Them and Their's. My name was Michele. It's French for Micheal. If I was a boy my mom was going to name my Micheal, but I was a girl, and now I'm neither and I prefer to be called Alex. I have an eventful life story, and it's hard. Sometimes I wish I was more normal, hell, all the time I wish I was more normal, but I'm not.
I've been struggling with my LGBTQ+ self because I feel like I can't come out to my mom, though, that's a story for another time. I feel so alone all the time and I wish that I had somebody I trusted with everything, but some people just want me to be different than I am.
