The biggest thing weighing me down:
I regret I waited such a long time.

I understand what you mean.  I'm doing this at 24, but I originally planned on starting my transition when I was 19.  Sometimes I look back at my fear and failures with anger.  However, it's not productive.  What does longing get us in the long run?  Live for today and make the best of it.  Don't regret the past.  Learn from your perceived mistakes or shortcomings and move forward.   It's never too late.

I can soooo relate.  Twelve years ago for sure.

To move forward is to leave behind that which has become dear. It is a call into the wild, into becoming someone currently unknown to us. For most, it is a call too frightening and too challenging to heed. For some, it is a call to be more than we were capable of being, both now and in the future.

Yea.. I'm really trying not to let the past hold me back; while at the same time not trying to over-analyze it (overthinking it is what stops me). I just want to move forward... one babystep at a time.
