Finally........a beginning

Well all of you who know me will understand what a big thing this is...I just came out to my eldest son. I've been feeling like the weight I was carrying was just getting bigger and bigger lately, and I knew it was crazy, cause it's such a small part of who I am. And so finally, I did it.

It went well, I think. He said "wow, I didnt see that coming", then "thats cool Mum". So it's a start, still a long way to go cause I guess I started with the one son I hoped would take it the best. I still have the others and my sisters to go and that's going to be hard, but I have to do it now the ball is rolling.

I just wanted it to stop being so damned important in my own mind.



HugZ, MG

I am so happy for you, MG. I know it may feel odd now, but believe me, it gets easier AND you will most likely find a new appreciation of yourself and who you are!!!!!

Thanks for sharing with all of us...

I'm happy for you, Noni. I know the first time is hard, even when it ISN'T family.

Congrats and best wishes when you find the strength to tell others, but do it when YOU feel ready.

Good stuff Noni - its not easy!!

I think there is a fear about lots of things that won't necessarily eventuate. But when it is all said and out in the open, you can rest easily in your mind - how other people take it is up to them.

We make it hard for ourselves cos we don't want to "upset others" - yet it has been burning you up for ages.

It will never be easy, but perhaps easier from now on. I hope the rest of your family are fine with it so life becomes easier and happier for you.

Thank you all my beautiful friends for your messages of encouragement and love, they mean so very much to me.
I just got back from seeing my middle son and his fiancee. What beautiful, caring children I have there. They sat on either side of me and held my hands as I stumbled through my admission, then my son hugged me and said "Its OK, you are my mum and I love you". He had a pretty good idea anyway and was just waiting for me to tell him.
Its still hard and I have a lot further to go but to have made this start is so huge for me.
