Did you ever have that dream, where you are inexplicably the opposite sex, and you start a new life and everything's great, and then you wake up to crushing disappointment and it feels like your life is empty?

And then you realize you're trans, and everything makes sense.

And then you start to transition, and start a new life and everything's great, and ...

Oh god am I about to wake up as my AGAB again? This can't be happening to me; I knew I'd never get to be happy ...

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm not imagining it. It's not just me that sometimes feels like this, right?

I had a dream somewhat recently, maybe 8 months ago where I was a woman and was living by myself mostly independent and completely happy with it. I felt so much hope for my future and thats often not something I experience. That carried me through the rest of the day, visualizing myself as a woman being able to live mostly by myself and content with it.
