    Hi, i recently discovered that I might be a lesbian. i dont think I could ever tell my parents or my close friends. and the weird thing is, i feel weird even admitting it to myself. I have had lots of gay and lesbian friends and ive always been totally accepting of it...but the fact that I might be one disturbs me a little, because I've always thought of myself as being straight. I dont know what to do. I know I'm going to have to come out sometime, but i dont think I can, andi dont know what to say or how to do it. help..please...

    Hi there, and welcome to Empty Closests. :smilewave

    Well, I would suggest that you relax. You aren't in a race or anything and you can take the time to gather any thoughts or emotions.

    There is a great topic posted above about the stages of coming out. Read through it and understand that you can and should move at your own pace.

    It is sometimes a difficult process to go through, but all of us are here to support you.
