It took me more then 10 years(Me 27) years to do that. I was so afraid. But I had luck, it went well.
With 17 I started to accept what I am, but I was just to afraid. I did come out many years ago to a select group of a few, one of them died, two slowly left my life which really hurt me, and one was left, no one else was left who knew.
But I saw that it eventually just really destroyed my mental health and I thought now or it will kill me.

I just hope that the next generations will not have to have this painful experience, because yet it truly was painful.

    I’m sorry that you had to endure so many years of pain and secrecy, but congratulations on taking that step and opening up a new chapter for yourself. Sometimes we all need to be reminded that it’s never too late to start being yourself and living your best life.
