so, i went to the haloween party, dressed as sarah, got drunk and read my friends a letter id written on my phone, they all said it was fine, a couple said they'd always known anyway and why had i taken so long to tell them!!
all in all it was a bit of an anti-climax for me, i think i'd worked it all up in my head to be a big thing, and after coming out life would be somehow completely different but a week after i did it, nothing really has changed, my friends have sent me messages of support which is really nice but i always kinda knew they would be fine with it.
and i looked damn good as Elvira, Queen of Darkness! :D
next stop, the Doctors!

Good for you, Sarah.
I bet it's a let down for everyone once they take the step of coming out. In my case, I thought I'd have to argue with people and defend myself from their stupid preconceptions, but then, none of that happened.
My other fantasy was for everyone to fall to their knees and worship me, but that fell through too.
I'm happy for you and I wish you the best of fortune as you head forward in your journey.
Hugs,
Rebis
