    Yeah, I am financially independent, moved out to my own apartment in a different city and just got on my own healthcare. I’m thinking about moving to a blue state during last sem just before I begin transitioning. But I’m not sure how the therapist requirements for HRT work. I heard something about needing to talk to a therapist about it for 6 months before starting? Should I move and start talking to a therapist in the destination state 6 months before I want to start HRT or can I talk to a therapist in the source state for 6 months and then move and I would be able to start HRT immediately even though the therapist is elsewhere?

    Reasons for waiting to move is to save up more money before moving so I can better afford medical treatments, potentially getting fired/laid off, and chip in to my sibling’s living/college expenses if necessary.

    My main reason for holding out is a younger sibling who is in their final years of high school, thus a minor, and parents who are qanon level crazy. Don’t want to do something that would endanger their chances of going to college or make their life a living hell until they graduate high school.

    There’s a high chance my parents will think college brainwashed me, not let my younger sibling go to college, leave this “corrupted country full of alphabet mobs” with my younger sibling, etc.

    My parents are not originally from the US and have been talking about leaving the US once my sibling graduates college because of the woke virus, so the last option is quite likely.

    So I’m not gonna come out publicly/to my parents until until my sibling is in college and out of my parents’ house. I’d rather continue a depressed shut in life for a year or two than ruin my sibling’s whole life.
