The 'misery narrative' of transness was one factor in my taking decades to acknowledge and embrace my own transness. After all, I wasn't miserable as a man... I just didn't much like it, and it didn't fit me right. Surely, if I were trans, I'd be miserable about it! That's not to say that I don't experience dysphoria, but that my primary motivator in transitioning is chasing euphoria rather than escaping dysphoria. That's a hard story to tell because it's just so unfamiliar. Thank you for highlighting this!
