Do you think I'm transsexual?

I am 14 years old, with my birthday being in 2ish months.

Most of my life I've felt wrong.

During dress-up games, I would dress in female clothes.

I remember having allot of thought like "I wish I was a girl", "I'd be better of as a girl" and other such things.

My mother(After successfully guessing my two older siblings genders), though I would be a girl. She bought girls clothes and decided on a girls name(Samantha, if you were wondering).

I have Aspergers, manic depression and many other disability's. I tried to kill myself when I was five, my mother wouldn't tell me why I tried. (Perhaps she didn't know why, but I think I would have told her)

I have suicidal thoughts more than once a day. I have anger issues but I hide them well(The slightest thing causes me to want to hit the nearest thing, but I don't. I hate attention.)

I rarely speak my mind. I think this is what stopped me from doing something about my gender issues when I was younger.

I'm overweight, caused by some medication I was on.(I rarely ate, but put on allot of weight)

I am interested in women, but not as a man.

I don't get sexual pleasure from these thoughts of being a women, The last time I crossdressed I wasn't even at the stage of development that sex had anything to do with it, just gender.

I'm shy and often referred to as "A polite little angel." among other things. I have been on many occasions mistaken for a girl. I like having long hair, and the only reason I don't grow it long is because it's really hot in my area.

If you need anymore info, just ask

P.S I know that Yahoo answers isn't the best place to ask this, but I'd rather be somewhat anonymous. I've never told anyone about this yet, but had planed to tell my mother about 6 hours ago.

Update:

Side note: I live in Australia, the NT to be specific.

Update 2:

Another side note, I'm 14(I did say this). And I haven't come out to my mother yet.

"Oh hey mum, can I go see a gender therapist. What? no reason"

Update 3:

When I see a woman, I become jealous. Everything about I notice. Chins, shoulders, necks, foreheads. They look right, but my forehead feels wrong, I have a bulge on it and it feels odd to me.

I had a therapist, but they did nothing, I hated stupid stuff like "Pick one of these cards to show me how you feel." I've always hated being belittled or treated like a child, even though I was a child(I know, it's odd. But one Minute it's all praise next it's treating me like a 3 year old). With the people I know it was always stuff like "He's so smart" "He's so polite" and other such things.

I did grade 4 during grade 3. But never finished grade 5, 6, 7 and 8. On my first IQ test it was around 160 something, this was many years ago however so I don't really remember. But I hated how people would praise me, shower me with compliments where I didn't feel I deserved them.

"Your handwriting is getting so much better" but I'

Update 4:

Got aspergers diagnosis at 7-8ish

Update 5:

I was censored in that last Additional Detail thing, I have no idea why, I was saying that I was Ampisinister,

No dominant hand.

    Mr. Clones is being an *ss. First of all, despite pretending he has a lot of information about trans* issues, he seems to have missed the memo that GID does not exist anymore, and the only reason there's a diagnosis still in the DSM for trans* people is because psychologists don't want to ruin the ability of trans* people to get insurance coverage for their condition whenever possible. But hey, what else would a troll tell you?

    It sounds like you very well might be trans* in some form or another. (Yes, there are multiple forms of being transgender.)

    I'm surprised that you're not already seeing a therapist of some kind for your Asperger's and your bipolar disorder. If you've been diagnosed at 14, I would presume it's a relatively severe form that would merit cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) along with some form of medication. I think that you could realistically argue for getting therapy based on that, and then you should simply choose a gender therapist in particular. I believe there's a list of them at drbeckys.com or drbecky.com or something like that. I'm sure you can find it; otherwise look through here for a bit---typically someone will post the link response to trans* questions.

    "Do you think I'm transsexual?"

    Could be, I think you really need to start with a good gender therpist and go from there, Australia health insurance covers this I "think".

    Edit

    ""Oh hey mum, can I go see a gender therapist. What? no reason"""

    I don't know your situation there, but can you go, dose she need to know, and if she does need to know at this point then you do what you have to do and tell her..

    Edit

    "I have Aspergers, manic depression and many other disability's."

    I suspect you are going to have a hard time finding a therpist as most will likly see the gender as a mix/part of this, offen one has to look for a dr to help for less commom problems. I don't know if any of these therapist will help over the internet or not. http://www.drbecky.com/therapists.html Dr Tracie O'Keefe is Australian www.tracieokeefe.com
