Identity Dysphoria

An umbrella term for dysphoria caused by identity incongruence including gender dysphoria, species dysphoria (referring to what is experienced by Therians and Otherkin), and age dysphoria. Contrary to popular belief, identity dysphoria is not exclusive to people with identities that differ from what they were born as or physically are. In theory, anyone can have identity dysphoria if they experience identity incongruence. For instance, if a cis man has gynomastia, he may experience gender dysphoria. However, this is much more rare and the majority of people who experience gender dysphoria are transgender, intersex, and/or double-binary.

My body does not reflect my identity and it causes me identity dysphoria.
