If you are just coming out, reading other's stories can give you courage to take your next step. You can gain some knowledge from how others coped with their situations. You can see that you are not alone in your struggle.
If you have been out for years, perhaps reading a story will take you back and make you realize how far you've come. If you think your story has something valuable to offer, send it to me. As the stories come in, we will add them here.
