Coming out is a celebration. Coming out is complicated. Coming out is scary. Coming out is lonely. Coming out is like finally being able to breathe. Coming out is unifying. Coming out is overwhelming. Coming out is awkward. Coming out never ends.
These are just some ways people have described their coming out experience. While our LGBTQ+ affirmative therapists are here to support you with your own coming out journey, we wanted to help you connect with other resources (both local and national) to help you feel less alone:
