It's been a pretty long time since I've been on here, but I feel like I've had a breakthrough recently. I have gotten into meditation and mindfulness, and I am finally really getting to where I can relax. Anyway, on to my revelation....I realized it tonight that I am not straight. I don't know what I am yet but I do know that I am not straight, and just having realized that has given me the greatest feeling of relief!
I probably did, but this is the first time that I have ever felt this good about accepting myself. I get kind of lost on these forums when I don't follow them closely. Regardless, I still felt like sharing.
Congrats on your moment of discovery! They only come when we are emotionally and mentally ready. It's individual to each of us. Such moments show personal growth. Now you can move forward to the next stage. Like others, I was in denial for many years. I suspected I was gay, but avoided dwelling on it. After a bout with cancer, I went into a period of deep self reflection which led me to my moment of self-realization. That led me to come out. Good luck on your journey. May it eventualy lead you a place of contentment and happiness!
