I did all the things. Transitioned. Quit opioids and cigarettes. Went back to school. Got discriminated against and persevered. Quit my last job because of anti LGBT policy and got my dream job.

Oh, and I did all that since 2020.

And it’s a nightmare. I’m isolated. No support, and I found out today my coworkers hate me and think I’m trash.

I don’t know what to do. Go back to school? It’s just going to be more of the same. In the last five years, I achieved more than I ever thought I could. And I’ve never been more alone or miserable than I am right now.

I’m tired of living in a world that doesn’t want me, that I’ll never be good enough for. My parents were right, I’m never going to be good enough.

So what’s the point?

    I don’t have any specific advice for you but I want you to know that you’re loved, valued, and wanted, even if just by random internet people (but I’m sure there are people in your life who feel this way about you even if they don’t say it outright).

    Things are gonna turn out better, even if it takes some time. Take it one step at a time, day by day. You’ve done so much already, and it takes a strong, resilient person to go through the things you’ve been subjected to.

    I wish you the best. You can do this.
