You bring up very good points about community.
Several months ago my therapist helped me do a search because I was having difficulty finding a space with other trans people. She found a place in the big city that had zoom support calls a couple times a month. I made contact with them and started joining and listening and sharing my experiences. It made a huge and positive impact on my transition.
About a month and a half ago I became unhoused and that community literally saved my life with both financial support and temporary shelter. A few weeks ago I finally got up the courage to go to 3 in person events with other queer folks and it was once again life changing. I was able to be social and not be afraid at all to have conversations with others who were like me.
One thing I tried to do was ask a new person how to spell their name and what pronouns they used and I wrote them in a section of my little cute journal. I'm terrible with remembering names and this helped me a lot with recalling the people and even some of the conversations we had. I hope I can keep up this momentum. There's another event happening in a couple weeks and I really want to go.
If someone is reading this and hasn't found a queer community near them, keep looking. Check whatever the largest city is nearest you for an LGBTQ+ support center. Check with your therapist or case worker if you have one. There's also a website called "Eventbrite" that lets you filter by lgbtq. Keep reaching out and hopefully you'll find what you need. Stay safe, don't give up, you can do this.
