I told my counselor yesterday and it felt amazing!!! It's such a good feeling to just yell it out and not care who hears anymore. I told her everything that I've been feeling and that I'm just done hiding it! My life has been a train wreck and these past couple months have been hell, but the one thing that has been holding me together is this forum. You all are so amazing and I really want to thank every one of you for all your support. There's been a few times where I just want to give up, and all it takes is one person to say "you're not alone" and I have a reason to hold on longer. From the bottom of my heart, thank you...
Telling my therapist was one of the best things ever. I completely melted down for a few days after, because he was the first person I had ever told. But, now, he's someone I can talk to openly about it and not worry. In fact, we talked most of my session last night about being gay, and it was wonderful. Baby steps...
I am so happy for you, and so glad to hear how much of a help we are to each other. We are living a part of history, and one day we (and our future generations) will look back and study the hate and wonder, "Why?"
Well done! I got a therapist because I needed to tell someone, so I've been open with her from day 1. It's so amazing to have a 'space' to be ME. (Although I know I have to watch out for transference as she is rather gorgeous!)
Aw, you're so sweet. The first person I told as my therapist, so I definitely understand how you're feeling. Like a weight is lifted off your shoulders? Congrats, that's so amazing
I am interested in working in a role such as this. So, if you don't mind me asking you all, where did you find your therapist and how? School? Google? Just looking to see what I should do to be in a position to help such as this for a career.
Good for you, thats so awesome you were able to do that! I did the same thing a few weeks ago and after my initial shock reaction I was sooo relieved as well. Congrats again!!
This is exciting news indeed. :eusa_clap It's wonderful and freeing to come out and stop hiding. Now you fully become the butterfly you are. This brings tear to my eyes. (*hug*) I am so happy for you well ecstatic for you is a better word.
Ngawww thats grat news! you are awesome! And beautiful! Let your light shine and dont let anyone block the light you give
