Lea,
You totally get it. Once the wall starts coming down, your ability to cope by repressing, supressing, lying to yourself just goes away.. I've posted before that I can't believe the crazy thoughts I had...how did I make it?
What Bree described is almost exactly how I experienced this, but I was in my mid forties...
Fwiw, I asked my therapist, who has exclusively seen tg patients for twenty years,about this exact thing
Her answer was she didn't know for sure, but it was very common in her ts patients. She said that our "arcs" are incredibly similar, with only the life details being different.
