Wow. You really captured these feelings well. It IS really difficult and quite scary to become something new. There is such a feeling of disconnect between altered perspectives. AND I am always afraid that if the person I was dies then all things truly are only temporary; thus the person I am will soon die too. Therefore I am truly nothing. But there are times when I glimpse a truth or two and I am aware that the old me has not died, she has simply grown and stretched. A friend of mine used to sign her email with the quote "we do not change as we grow older, we simply become more clearly ourselves." I always liked this signature. You are going to be okay.
