Hi everyone, I'm Emily and I'm new. I'm a lesbian who has spent a lot of time forcing herself to try and be straight. I'm tired of trying. I'm mentally ill and being so closeted and in denial has seriously messed with my head. I'm glad to have found a place where I can talk with others who understand.
Hi Emily! Welcome. I like your Avatar! Everybody has a different path, but to me it has been really comforting to embrace my orientation (bisexuality, in my case) to myself. It's who I've always been, and I like embracing it. My big challenge is sharing that with others honestly. Coming out. This is a great place to explore and talk. Welcome.
