Howdy,
I'm a 27 yo adoptee. Kinda surprised that no one has replied to this yet. I really wish that I could give you a "right" answer to your question. Is there any time that is really "right"?... probably not. There will always be something going on, other things on your mind, events happening in the world that you could use to push it off. I think the best thing that you could do is think about how you were when you were her age. Could you have handled that kind of a shock at 18. I am in no way trying to discourage you from searching. I believe that every moment in this life is precious and that we should spend each of those moments doing things to improve others and our own lives. If you wait another year, that is a year you will never get back. You sound like a wonderful person and are very considerate, and the great thing about a heart is that there is always room for more love, Even if it seems like every hole in her world is filled.
