As everyone has already said, your picture is truly beautiful and everytime you update us it has been very inspiring for many of us late transitioners. Unfortunately, I'm not surprised that there is depression after post-op, it reminds me of professonal athletes post-retirement. So, much focus has been on getting to X or being X that once that part of life is over there is a need to reimagine life yet again which can be wonderful but also many are unprepared for that. The unfulfilling work situation would have been difficult enough but when adding in the post-op blues that is a lot for anyone. Nevertheless, your post shows us what great leaps you have made and how resilient you are. It sounds like you have some really positive things in the air at the moment and I wouldn't be surprised that as your new life unfolds in a new happier direction that someone will come into your life.
Please keep us updated because you have really been a source of encouragement for many of us.
