When I came out it wasn’t something that happened all at once. After figuring out my identity at 12, I first was open with the queer friends I made in high school at 15. It took me 4 more years to build up the courage to come out to my mom over text, and she and my dad were supportive! At the present moment it is still something that’s on my mind a lot, especially concerning my extended family and a grandmother whom I’m close with. (Non-binary/20/Aroace)
