- i've been seeing the same counselor for 3 years now
- confused about my gender, but mainly am now angry that I am a female when in reality, maybe my birthmother might not have died/abandoned me if I was a boy
- I'm adopted from china where boys were much more favored than girls at the time

"To dwell in the here and the now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibility, plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about past or worries about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness by looking into the past, but you are still grounded in the present moment"
