    My brain is going a hundred miles a minute. So my dilemma is that I want to transition; BUT I'm taking a year off to work and get enough money together to go back to school. Also, I'm living with my parents whom I think will react badly. I want to, and feel for my own sanity I should move out, but then I won't be able to make enough to go back to school OR transition. If I go back to school without transitioning I'll have the same problems with depression and poor grades that caused me to leave in the first place. But if I do start transitioning first then I don't know if I could save enough to go back at all especially because I most likely will lose the last of the money my parents have set aside for me. I could potentially start hrt when I get to school but I don't know if I can make it another six months. :help:

    Well first of all, can't you go to school without the full transitioning and hormones? I mean what is your goal in school? You want to be a doctor? An artist a lawyer what?

    You need to address what you want in life academically and financially. I know that transitioning is not cheap so you have that to consider.

    I know it's hard but you have to make the choice where you are happiest. If that means transitioning now then do it. School can wait, but tuition doesn't dissappear.
