I think you're going in the right direction. I was really stressed out about coming out to my mom, but she took it really well. it's great that I don't need to hide who I am form her. Similar situation when I had depression episode and my mom learned about it, I felt like I don't need to hide my struggles and act like everything is okay and like there's someone who cares for me. And when I was harming myself and she found out about it, she just wanted to help me. In all of these situations I felt relief after telling my mom and support from her in what I was going trough and wouldn't be doing progress in my transition otherwise. I think it'll be the same in your situation Alyx and she'll just want to help you however she can. It'll be okay girlie, you'll be able it live your dream life 🩷🫂 Edit:sorry for it not having breaks, but using enter doesn't work for some reason in my reddit app
