Most people are scared to come out, to people. There scared of getting rejected by their friends but, not only that tut the world. Here my own tips for how to come out.
1. Practice in a mirror and maybe even make flash cards on what you wanna say or even get one of your friends that you've already come out with or partner.
2. Sit down and take deep breathes if your about to have a panic attack about it. Think about how good they might understand. I know it may seem hard but, parents these days might accept you, like mine did with me!
3. Sit somewhere with your parents and tell them about how you feel and what you are loud and proud! ]]> 2018-12-12 14:35:00 UTC https://padlet.com/slimon1/bgyr6hbe78bk/wish/313850393
