How to handle the feelings of shame?

Thanks, I have a new plan that I worked with my therapist on. I will be moving to a new city in a year and a half or so. I am hoping that Colorado is more excepting than where I live now. I need to wait to be able to access my retirement savings in order to move. So that is my goal, having that in my head is helping me.

Many parts of Colorado are very accepting. Do you have an idea of what part of the state interests you? There are also strong conservative areas. Do your research on issues that matter to you. A VERY GENERAL overview is that Central Colorado south of Denver is more liberal. Northern counties, the western slope, and the eastern plains are more conservative, but those are smaller cities than the big metro areas. Even within those conservative areas are pockets of acceptance, especially near colleges and universities.
