I'm very happy for you. Stories like yours helped motivate me to do similar. I've semi-recently come out to a few friends of mine that I'm bi / pan, but still only have one foot outside the closet. I did it for no particular reason other than to see what it felt like to be open about it for once. I'm glad I did. It felt like taking a gasp of fresh air after holding my breath for far too long. While it wasn't a life changing moment for me like it has been for others, self-acceptance has dramatically eased my emotional stress, and I hope we can encourage more to do the same.
this was so nice to read!! community and sense of belongings is so important, so it's really awesome that you've found your niche in the world!! ☺️❤️
Thanks for this really sweet post. Have a wonderful day!
