She had gotten worse to the point that even she was scared of herself. Not only was she no longer able to work, which was what came first for her, she no longer felt healthy enough to be on her own. She started to question other patients on how they make it through all of the stress, and they almost all had someone who could support them in their times of need. While Bamford was in a stable and healthy enough mood to date, she took an opportunity and went on a date with a man named Scott. She said the date was only “nice” but she continued seeing him. They both realized they had flaws and were both willing to work together to get through them. This lead to them both breaking their streaks of short relationships and eventually becoming married. A few good examples of Maria’s transition techniques can be seen when she states that she does not believe she has to wait to be considered “lovable” to be loved, and then she starts a new paragraph with “And I was right” which connected those two paragraphs. Another greats example happens as she is discussing her first major incident with her mental illness, and ends that paragraph with “My manager heard my hyperventilating over the phone and canceled all four upcoming shows” and then begins the next with “Thus began a breakdown” and continued to state everything her first incident
