Did you ever have that dream, where you are inexplicably the opposite sex, and you start a new life and everything’s great, and then you wake up to crushing disappointment and it feels like your life is empty?
And then you realize you’re trans, and everything makes sense.
And then you start to transition, and start a new life and everything’s great, and …
Oh god am I about to wake up as my AGAB again? This can’t be happening to me; I knew I’d never get to be happy …
Anyway, I’m pretty sure I’m not imagining it. It’s not just me that sometimes feels like this, right?

Had my own That Dream recently.
You know how in the movie Interstellar, there is the tesseract, an endless matrix grid showing moments in space and time?
In the dream I am in my own Trans Tesseract, seeing images of myself at future points in time going through the various stages of transition.
Woke up and my first thought was, “What a very normal cishet dream. I think I need to check some things…”
Haha, yes, I’ve had a similar one where I meet my future self. There are several comics along those lines so I guess it’s fairly common. I remember feeling so much relief to know I finally manage to become a girl. And then dismissed it all as a meaningless dream.
I was more of a “well of course everyone wants to be a girl, but we can’t just all be girls and be happy” enjoyer myself
Get out of my head 🙃
Nah, I was so dense about being trans that I didn’t have dreams about being my proper gender until TWO YEARS into medically transitioning on HRT LOL
Out of order, I had that experience. Took me till this September to put it together, and I’m now 28. I thought it was just a kink, purely sexual. Nope.
I had a random dream recently about catching my reflection and realizing how much more feminine my face looked, but yeah a little disappointed waking up since I haven’t started much.
In most of my dreams I’m AGAB, and sometimes in my dreams I’m trans (which is more like trying to pass rather than being the opposite of my AGAB). I think once or twice I’ve actually been the opposite of my AGAB without feeling that anxious sense of being an imposter.
I had a dream somewhat recently, maybe 8 months ago where I was a woman and was living by myself mostly independent and completely happy with it. I felt so much hope for my future and thats often not something I experience. That carried me through the rest of the day, visualizing myself as a woman being able to live mostly by myself and content with it.
I never see myself in my dreams anyway. So no, not really.
I’ve had a couple swimming as a mermaid recently. I usually see from my perspective in dreams, so I don’t usually have a view of what I look like. Also, like aliens invade in my dreams or I’m going to classes and doing homework so I’m not really in the mindset to check. edit: typo
I’ve had exactly one dream, at around 6 years old, where I was a girl. I barely questioned it aside from finding it kinda cool. The last 20 years they’ve all had me as a guy, but recently they’ve started overtly including dysphoric content and feelings
