    Just came out for the first time at 40. To my councilor and most important my mom. This is a scary time right now.

    AuntyShanny,

    I want to first welcome you to Empty Closets. This website is an amazing place and I am sure you are going to enjoy being apart of this website. Secondly, I want to congratulate you on coming out and that I am really proud of you. Coming out at any age can be difficult, and I think that it could even be harder for someone who is an older person. There is alot of support on this website and there are many people here who would be happy to help you.
