I think I’m transgender
Ever since I was 6 I felt like I was a boy trapped in a girls body and I don’t know what to do about it. I haven’t told my parents because they wouldn’t understand and I just don’t know what to do

There is nothing wrong in this and I think you are suffering from gender identity disorder which is treatable with psychological help. U should consult a psychiatrist and also take psychological help to open up about issues with parents.
