Dysphoria, Euphoria, and Transition

Dysphoria is, in this context, is the feeling of discomfort somone has due to the mismatch between their current body/experience and internal identity.
Euphoria is considered to be the opposite: a feeling of comfort, wholeness, and joy in someone's internal identity matching their external one.
Transition is the change (or changes) someone makes to allieviate dysphoria or have euphoria.
Not everyone experiences both euphoria and dysphoria - some report having only dysphoria or only euphoria.
And not everyone transitions the same - some transition a lot, some only a little, and some don't. Transition can be limited by social circumstances, financial reasons, technology not being yet available.
