    I'm 23 from VA but currently residing in FL. I've always known that I liked females but recently came out to my family. I don't think i did it right. I don't know if there is a right or wrong way to come out but it just didn't feel right. I still feel closeted within myself. i'm just hoping that I find some answers somewhere.

    Hello and Welcome to EC!!

    It normal to feel a bit off after coming out. You just reveled a big part of yourself, so you are going to feel odd for a bit.

    Hiya! I recently came out too! It's a weird feeling, relief conflicting with anxiety, you'll get used to it. :slight_smile:

    Welcome to EC! :grin:

    I'm not sure there is an easy way to come out to your parents, especially when you're from the south. I live in the south as well, and I doubt I'll ever find the courage to tell my mom. We live under the Bible Belt, and people tend to be more close-minded here.
