Brief Answer:
Hi

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for your query.
I appreciate your efforts for medical consultation in so much distress.

You appear to have condition called Transsexualism, in which an individual identifies with a gender inconsistent with their assigned sex, i.e. in which a person's assigned sex at birth conflicts with their psychological gender. Due to that you attracted towards male only.

Such sexual behavior is not acceptable in society, which lead in bullying in childhood and significant stress-depression in adult life.

Currently you are having severe depression which is affecting your sleep and appetite also. I would suggest you to meet nearby psychiatrist for medical treatment for depression and counseling in form of supportive counseling and CBT (Cognitive behaviour therapy).

As you separated with your friend recently, which is causing more problems. With time also your suffering will reduce. Just try to maintain your routine as much as possible.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups.

Wish you good health.
Regards,
