Greetings
Im currently in the process of coming out! (At least to the people I trust. One step at a time …)
So I would really like to know how it feelt for you when you embarked on that journey.
Im particularly interested in the emotional aspects of that and also how it affected your sense of self.
Especially in what happened the moment you accepted yourself.
Happy to hear your stories!
It’s been a bit over 2 months since I came out and the day before and I had goosebumps and shivers over my whole body when I realized that I need to come out. I sat in my desk chair crying not knowing what to do at first. The next day I wrote to my mom that I needed to talk to her and I was literally shaking while trying to get it out. But afterwards I felt so relieved to have finally said it. My mom was very supportive and so was everyone so far I told it (and I told almost everyone so far). Each time got easier for me. But the first few times were very emotionally draining although it was definitely worth it because I feel much better now. I quickly found a therapist and will hopefully start HRT not before long.
