Welcome to EmptyClosets. Hello from a fellow Indian. You've already taken the first step of opening a thread here in the Welcome sub-forum. A few things to note: - You will be able to post visitor messages on other members' profiles after you make 10 posts. - After a month and a minimum of 50 posts, you can apply for full-membership on the forum, in order to access private messaging feature (Which is a privilege. As a regular member, you can only send and receive private messages from staff members) You could browse the forum and post in threads you might find interesting. Alternately you could post a thread telling us about your coming out journey, or open a thread if you have any questions about anything in particular. Take your time to go through the different sub-forums EmptyClosets offers and browse the threads. I myself took some time when I joined as a new member here, just browsing the different threads, without posting anything on my own. Feel free to reach out to me, if you have any questions or if you need any further help navigating the forum. Welcome, once again!
