Cassie, it's never too late to transition. I am 34 and I'm less than a year into my transition. I dressed publicly as a woman for the first time a little over a year ago. I went close to full-time 10 months ago, I am 8 months on HRT, and 8 months full time. I too was at the transition or die point two years ago. I seriously wanted to die two years ago, I thought there was no hope. I joined this forum and once I started taking serious steps towards transition, I no longer wanted to die. I am living happily as a woman full-time and there's no turning back.

You're not alone, many of us have been through this path. Plenty of us have transitioned well past the age of 36 - some of us here transitioned at 50 or 60. Please feel free to send me a PM if you need to talk. Hugs
