Rather than staying stuck sorta on the dates of it....try focusing on the facts. check the facts. What are the facts?
1-you are your true gender now
2-your mom accepts and supports you greatly (this is huge, BTW. Really tap into some thankfulness mindsets with this one.)
3-you can even go to a T. One time I was severly suicidal and couldnt get help because I had no insurance and couldnt afford the $20 sliding scale fee to see a T.
4-ypu have meds that help you function for the most part.
5-you get to go places and do things. some people are stuck at home.

what else can you think of? check the facts.
I guess that makes sense. The whole not focusing on the date thing but just that my transtion happened. I'm just this type of person who likes everything to fit neatly into a little box and for things to go to plan and work out as I think they should and when things don't go as I imagine or plan they would I just get stuck on it. I just like have this perfect image of how things should work out but they rarely do.
