If I could have back all the money I spent on therapy for decades trying to figure out what was "wrong with me", I would be rich beyond belief. The only thing that was wrong with me was my belief that something was wrong with me and needed to be fixed
That’s generally good advice but may be hard to follow if you are an actor and the performance of a role becomes your identity. Which, of course, is exactly the problem with gender ideology. The notion that your identity depends on conforming (or not conforming) to some social stereotypes is kind of insane and also dangerous, especially to those emotionally vulnerable (like minors).
If living your life as a never ending performance reliant on constant applause sounds like hell…well, it’s because it is.

Oh, and let's not forget all the money I spent on self-help books! That's another fortune down the drain...
