    Hi All,
    Where has this site been all my life?? Or more specifically, the last few very dark months in my stifling closet. I'm 24 (lesbian) and struggling with almost every aspect of my world and increasingly aware that my problems are probably rooted in my refusal/fear of coming out to people. I feel like I'm suffocating under the weight of it all. I really hope to make some changes and even joining this place is a big thing for me, so hello and may the baby steps commence! :slight_smile:
