-The first thing you need to understand-

                                    

                                          

The first thing you need to understand (if you're sure you're ftm) is that you are a real boy, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
                          
I was raised in a christian home so for the longest time I denied that I was Trans, I made up reasons as to why I could never be Trans like my chest was to big for binding, I have too many curves, my voice is too feminine, or my mum would never accept it; but when I did start to transition I kept having this feeling that I would never be a real boy, that I could never fully transition and honestly be a real boy. But one day my friend told me that I am I real boy when I really needed to hear that.
                          
To anyone who thinks they can never be a real man, just look at what you're doing. You are ballsy enough to transition, that's more than any cis guy I know would do.
                          
So the first thing you need to know is, you are a real boy.
                          
(Yes I know it sounds like Pinocchio, I used to compare myself to him quite often, then I finally said I am going to be a real boy, and my blue fairy is going to be testosterone.)
