Alone!

[Chris432]

Hey all,
I don't really know how to put this but I'm feeling really depressed and alone right now just because i'm gay. Right now only a few close friends know that I'm gay. I think I'm feeling this way because I'm not out publicly and that I can't be myself around others. I would really like someone to talk to that could maybe make me feel better.
Thanks,
Chris

P.S. Sorry if the above is grammatically incorrect, English is not my strong suit

Personally, I think talking right here is a really good idea. There are others that are experiencing the exact same problem. So having an open forum convo, I'm sure would bring some sense of understanding and support.

For me, I never really came out either. Although people irl know, it just kinda happened for me. But I can understand how you feel.
One thing is say is why do you feel a need to come out to everyone? Why don't you just be yourself, and don't say anything at all. Sure some people might be surprised, but so what??
Labels are just word signs, and I'm not sure we really NEED to carry one around all the time.
What's stoping you from being yourself with others?
