Is it really worth it? I would loose my wife, my parents, my job and my inheritance.

Advice Question

As the title says... Please be completely honest whether transition was worth it to you, when you know you would definitely lose all those things.

I (27 years old) have a one year old daughter with my wife and she said she'd break up if I continue, because my changing body makes her physically ill.

My parents would cut contact and I'd be out of my inheritance.

My sister would move away, because she doesn't want her son to be close to me.

My religious community would also lose respect of me.

And I'd loose the company I built for 10 years.

Rationally it doesn't make sense. I should detransition, and exchange my happiness for the happiness of all of those people around me.

I'm especially so worried for my daughter. I don't want her to grow old without me being around her everyday. I love her so much and even the thought of hurting her or making her live more difficult pains me so much.

If you're uncomfortable sharing here, because it's negative, please shoot me a DM...

I'm currently lost.
