Hi, everyone. I've been married to a wonderful man for ten years and only just recently admitted to myself that I'm definitely not straight, and possibly a full-blown lesbian. (Definitely a Kinsey 4 or 5 at the least.) I started working with a therapist (online and quasi-anonymously) about it just a week ago, and have spent the last week in a more or less constant state of panic, guilt, and despair. I've lurked on these boards in the past but only yesterday gathered up the courage to register. I'm not going to sugar-coat it: I really, really need help. I'm scared and I'm hoping this community will help me, if only because I don't want to keep bothering my therapist with texts at all hours of the night.
