    Back in February. I left a note for my mom to read on the fireplace in the kitchen then left for work. We talked a little bit about it later that night. Although, not much has changed (good or bad), I still feel like there is a somewhat better atmosphere in my house and i'm more at peace with myself.

    I started coming out of the closet about a year and a half ago. Well, I told my close friends first and then expanded the circle to my parents. As time has gone by, I have told some of my other friends. The most important part is that I knew that I was ready for any reaction they might have before telling them.

    Told a few friends about two months ago. Planning to tell everybody else within the next 6-7 months. Maybe.

    I came out as trans* to my brother over Skype back in late March, and then my mother the following day. Eventually came out to my dad, my other brother, some extended family through facebook, ect. Later came out at school to all of my teachers/classmates in April and started presenting as male since.

    Have yet to come out publically but I started coming out around the tail end of May, early June, just to a handful of friends and a support group. Otherwise, I don't plan on coming out for some time.

    I officially came out two years ago in June. It hardly feels it though.

    I'd been on here and slowly coming out beforehand, but that's when I started telling people. It really did feel good. As of now, most people know, save but some extended family.

    I came out to my parents back in November of last year. It was a very complicated situation, and not exactly what I had planned. In the end it worked out though. And then in February I came out to my best friend, she took it awesome; and we've been the closest we've ever been afterwards.

    I was out to everyone but my parents on my sixteenth birthday, but I didn't come out to my parents until I was almost nineteen. I came out for the first time when I was fifteen, and it was to my best friend at the time.
