This may sound weird but I am progressing really nicely with my doctor. I've answered a billion questions about me and answered honestly and I feel...frankly the same way I felt when I was in love.
Just these surreal feelings of...I dunno. I'm calling them love as that is what I associate them with.
It's like euphoria and I feel great and this is just from telling my story.

Is this an actual thing or am I just messed up a bit?

For me trusting someone and opening up to them and them accepting you gives me all the feels to. I'm not sure if it's dopamine probably more likely oxytocin but which chemical isn't important. I think after a life time of lying / hiding in shame trusting someone is pretty amazing.

Finally taking steps in the right direction after years of avoiding it is a huge relief. I felt the same way. Enjoy the feeling because if you choose to take it further it doesn't go away.

The day I told my doctor and my manager at work I felt euphoric! I was on top of the world. I had not felt so happy for years and years.  It was a complete vindication for me after years of feeling as what I was doing in secret was wrong.
