Ok, so I came out to my dad, stepmom and a few friends. I'm really worried about my mom and stepdad though. My dad said I could start seeing a therapist. I can't wait.

Good job; family is near the hardest to come out too.

Congrats on taking a huge step!
They're going to need time to get a bit used to it, but hopefully everything will turn out fine.

High five for you!

I think it is great that you came out.  It is a very big step.  I came out after being in therapy for about 1.5 years or so.

I actually tend to disagree.  I thought my family was hard, but telling some of my closest friends was harder.

Good luck with everything!

Congrats on having the courage to tell them. I have yet to tell my parents or any family memeber. Most of my friends know.
