Trans and starting uni soon

I've only recently put two and two together and figured out that I am transgender. I am in the process of figuring out how to come out about that and I realise that in two weeks time I'll be at peak stress levels with being moved into uni by myself. How and where can I get help for my trans-ness? I am so scared that I might do something stupid like rush into transitioning or worse so I wonder if there is anything I can do where I am going to university? I am going to the University of Nottingham btw. Like I understand they have counselling but do they cater for trans people? An what can I do to ease dysphoria because that is a bane of my life atm.
Join lgbt societies? And counselling could be good for you as well, give it a try, hope it will work out for you x
Old thread and idk if you've managed to get on okay, but I'm at UoN, too, and trans. Been out almost 5 years, sorted my GRC, HRT etc, so if you need anyone to talk to, don't hesitate dropping me a message (:
