Okay, lately my mind going crazy I guess I'm in despair or something I can't remember for sure when it started but last week my dad moved back to California because his house burned down Arizona and he just divorced his 2nd wife. Anyway, I told my mom he was going to stay the night and she says "okay." but the next morning she starts yelling at me because he was sleeping in her bed. We all know he has a bad back (so, he can't sleep on the floor or the couch)
Back to what I saying she screams "You're so selfish!!!" at me; the time 7am and I sleep on the couch because I don't really have a bedroom.
She thinks I love my dad more than her which is not true.
I mean, I love my mom; she works two jobs which I'm thankful to her for financially supporting me and my sister but on most levels we have nothing in common.
Anyway, right now I strongly feel like it's time to transition and
My mom won't talk to me about it and blames my Cerebral palsy.
My dad thinks I'm crazy.
My sister wants me to wait.
But I've waiting for five years and I came out to them a year ago.
I can't get a hold of my friends because they're always busy.
I try not to think about it but it’s really eating me alive.
I don’t know what to do anymore.

I'm having a little trouble understanding what you're saying. You say you think it's time to transition, but transition from what to what?

Okay, that clears things up immensely. I can see why your parents would be upset. This isn't just you coming out to them, this is you actually putting effort to change your sexual image. This can come as a system shock to parents, even ones who accept or even applaud their children for being LGB. T is whole other level, but not at the same time. I'm not trying to discourage you from your transition, quite the opposite, I wish you the best of luck. You should do what YOU believe is the right thing for you too do. Your sexual identity is a large part of who you are and you shouldn't try and make it conform to what others want, it's YOUR choice, not theirs. I wholly believe that if you want to both begin your transition and move out, that should be an option for you. If moving out and beginning hormone replacement therapy is the path you wish to follow, then walk (OR skip :3) at your own pace down that path. They are your family, but this is your happiness, in my opinion, they just need to accept the fact that you are who you are and they can't say or do anything to change you.
