i have seen a lot of post about age in life and T.squiggles is great.i noticed something yesterday that for me was so awesome.i felt like an adult.most times i just am who i am.i act very child like in T and also in life.it is a real problem.yesterday i went to a cookout at my BFF house with some of her other friends and some people i didn't know.her husband is an amazing cook so we had good food,good wine ,and good people.i was sitting there with a bunch of other people and eating .TALKING
 ,LAUGHING,ETC...at one point i found myself just looking around smiling and realized i wasn't scared,shy,filled with worry about others liking me,thinking i am acting like an idiot.wondering who hates me ETC...in actuality i was acting and feeling like an adult.it was a moment i wanted to just savor and remember.it can happen.i can feel normal.i don't know if this will happen again but it was just nice.i wish i would be able to share it with my T .it would be strange doing that when i am playing with clay .the whole night was great until i broke my toe and have to work today back to bratty kid mode

Sounds like a great evening granite! (except for the broken toe!) I love that you stopped and looked around for a moment to take it all in...
I've had an experience like this too, where I was out with one friend and a bunch of her friends, and I had a great evening! When I shared it with my T I told her I wish I could be "that me" a lot more often.... here's to hoping we find a way to be "that person" more frequently!

sounds great right up to the point you broke your toe, sorry that happened! but I am glad you had the experience before that happened, it sounds very validating. I wish I could have some more of those experiences......

I think those glimpses, even if they are brief, can give reassurance that we can get there.
