So I've got to wonder with my world goin down in flames around me AGAIN I guess I seriously have to wonder if I'm not dealing with something Bigger than me. I would always say "I would transition but I love my wife and kids too much and I have a great job" well along with losing everything else again I now lost my kids to the state lost my job and my wife's all but gone...literally in 20 days I lose her too....so now I'm without those three important things...now what? ??

Hi JJ!
I think it's the first time we meet... Look, I'm really sorry that things are not going well for you. However, I fail to understand a few things... Tell me: were those three losses the result of the fact that you are transgender? Or would they occur anyways?
I'm still at the very beggining of my own transition and one thing that I am absolutely positive about is that in order to have a succesful transition, one must have a solid plan, along with a plan B, C and even D in the case things go wrong. I know that sometimes the dysphoria can be so overwhelming as to make us overlook the need for a plan. We just want to do it and voilá! Alas, the path is seldom smooth and I think that almost every trans* (especially when married and a parent) have faced difficult times.
Now, you should try to get back on your feet. Did you already go to a therapist? She might offer you the support you need in order to help you structure your own life... Looking for objectives, priorities, sensible ways of reaching these.
Above all, JJ, it's not a moment for despair. I understand that you probably feel so traumatized that it's difficult to think straight. All you can think is: "I lost it all! What now?" Well, you didn't lose it all. Life goes on and you must find the strength to proceed with your own. Strength, lucidity and determination. Much of you future depends on your decisions, so decide well. That's why a therapist would be very helpful, I think. You, girl, need to have a Plan! And stick to it!
Hugs, Sarah [emoji66]
