People of Lemmy who have either "reinvented themselves" or gone through a mid/quarter-life crisis, where did you start off and where did you end up?

I feel like I need to do more than just post a picture. In this case, the picture really does tell the story in a lot of ways, but still, there was a lot of pain and trauma that led me to this point.
I started off depressed and angry, lost in life, knowing what I needed to do, but feeling like it wasn't something I could do. And when I finally accepted that I could do it, years went in to it. A quick photo makes it look like a magical transformation, but there was close to 10 years between those photos, and a lot of self discovery, self exploration and pain. As well as joy, and surprises.
Ohh I love this one! Perfectly summed it up with the pics for me ;)
Hey, I just want to say thanks for posting this. I'm just a random internet stranger, but I'm happy for you. I think Fred Rogers sums it up best, he is the epitome of kindness to me.
It's you I like,
It's not the things you wear,
It's not the way you do your hair
But it's you I like
The way you are right now,
The way down deep inside you
Not the things that hide you,
Not your toys
They're just beside you.
But it's you I like
Every part of you.
Your skin, your eyes, your feelings
Whether old or new.
I hope that you'll remember
Even when you're feeling blue
That it's you I like,
It's you yourself
It's you.
It's you I like.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm glad you were able to find your joy.
Congratz!
Most useless "transformation" lmao
Fuck off
Go back to Reddit, you'll fit better there, scum
You far-left crazies was the reason I left reddit in the first place
Aww the poor conservative needed a safe space so their feelwings wouldnt be hurt.
You really seem to think in binaries, while campaigning about your non-binary mythologies. Just because I hate fascists like you, doesn't mean I'm a conservative
Silence, troll.
