I teach guitar with a bandmate who's a lefty. When I have a new student who's a lefty, I ask him for advice on showing them chord diagrams etc. He told me to just write it as I normally would, as he's found that over time you adapt as everything is written for right hand anyway. Now if he sees something written left handed it takes him longer to work out!

I'm the opposite of you,I'm RH and I play LH which makes more sense to me AND you. It feels more natural,I can't even produce a good sound the other way, but I can play backward no problem,I can even play gigs with a RH bass if I want too,
