I came out as trans. She was upset with me over something stupid and I overreacted and she was confused as to why I was so upset and I felt like I had no choice but to tell her. It had nothing to do with my gender, my emotions are just jumbled from being in the closet for way longer than I should've been. I couldn't even say it out loud, I had to write it on a piece of paper. She hugged me and said she's going to help me find a gender therapist but I still feel like the timing was totally wrong here. I wanted to be more confident and tell her everything, but I could only cry. I thought I was ready to do this. I guess I was wrong. Everything went well, so why do I feel so awful?
Well, congratulations on coming out. And I'm glad she seemed to take it ok. I felt really awful afterwards too, and I sort of came out in a bad way, and cried the whole time, so I can relate. Try to talk to her about it later, when you're more calm and get really get your feelings across. That's what I did, and it helped her understand a lot more.
