Been trying to change how I react to and create narratives around my negative emotions and thoughts. Maybe it will be helpful for people here.

pretty mild dysphoric thoughts, I guessWhen I think "I feel like a man today. This makes me sad, but it must be proof that I'm a man"

Instead, I'm trying to think, "I feel like a man today. This makes me sad. I'm a trans woman experiencing gender dysphoria"

When I think, "Your emotional state is all over the place and changes radically each day. These mood swings are proof that you are mentally ill, and this trans thing is a symptom of your illness"

Instead, I try to think, "Your emotional state is all over the place and changes radically each day. You're processing emotions and working through things that you've ignored for a long time. It will get easier over time"

When I think, "You're only doing this because you think it will fix you and make you happy, but you'll find out later it was all a mistake"

I try to think, "I don't need fixing, and I'm only doing this because it has already, at times, made me happier than I've ever been."

Maybe you could share your own healthy patterns of thought
