Gender Identity

If you are a young person unsure about your gender, you are not the only one. Like adults, teenagers can experience a range of feelings about being male or female, or maybe feeling that you are both.

Please speak to your GP about your feelings, if you both feel it is worthwhile, they can refer you to the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) for an opportunity to speak this over with someone who will not judge you, but help you build confidence in your identity. CAMHS is a specialist service that specialises in supporting people in their emotional wellbeing.

Childline

Childline, the children and young people’s helpline, is there for anyone who wants to talk about a problem in confidence. Call 0800 1111.
