    I first joined Emptyclosets about a year-ish ago. A short while after I managed to tell my best friend how I felt. She was the first person and it was like someone had lifted a weight off my shoulders and I could breathe easily again.

    I then went about a year without any advancements on the outing front. Last week though I decided on a spur of the moment to tell 3 other friends how I feel. It all went brilliantly and again it was a massive relief.

    I may have a long way to go still but I can honestly say that without the support on here, I would still have told no one.

    So..thank you. Thank you very much. (*hug*)

    So good to hear. You are building up a support network and that's so important on your coming out journey. Telling three people in one week is a huge step forward. Great stuff! :slight_smile:
