From people who came through it
“Coming out is different for everyone. For me, my dad stopped talking. That hurt more than I expected. But some people surprised me. My brother let me in. A friend from class checked on me. The waiting list for the clinic is long, but I'm still here. If you're just starting, take it slow. You don't have to tell everyone at once. And if someone walks away, it says more about them than you. Keep the people who stay.”
Brief Orchard · been through lgbtq+ and coming out“To whoever needs this: A year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. A name change on all the forms, every single day. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. You're not on your own.”
Bright Daisy · been through lgbtq+ and coming out“Hello from the other side of it. Two years ago, that was me. The worst part was a waiting list for the gender clinic. Yesterday I booked a holiday. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
Oanaz T · been through lgbtq+ and coming out“To whoever needs this: I was where you are this time last year. Came out to my parents at Christmas, every single day. I got a new job this spring. You get yourself back in pieces. One day at a time.”
