    Yes, I did it. I finally told my mother. I feel...normal. Her reaction was unpleasant, but I don't feel upset and I don't feel excitement...releif is probably the best word. I did it. I did it. I could write a poem...

    Well done, it's an achievement to have the strength and courage to come out to someone, regardless of their reaction. It's sad to hear that she wasn't as supportive as you would have liked, but it is good to get it off your chest. I hope this is one of the many steps you'll take to complete your journey. (*hug*)
