that’s very good to hear! i’m so happy you’re feeling better about yourself. 

you don’t have to come out as genderqueer if you don’t want to. you can just start doing things you like and tell people you’re exploring yourself. 

however, you might want to come out to people who are very close to you. just sit them down and first, explain what it means to be nonbinary. then tell them that you feel like that word represents you because _____.

it might be easier to do one thing at a time if you don’t want to come out. like, first start changing your appearance and go by the same name/pronouns as before around people who you think won’t receive your gender identity well. then change your name, then after that blows over, change your pronouns. but if you feel like that is moving too slow, you can just come out, which we have plenty of resources for. 

there is no perfect script for coming out. it’s gonna be uncomfortable and it’s probably gonna be difficult for you and for the people who you’re talking to. but be confident, and be patient with them, and answer their questions the best you can. it might be the first time they’re learning about genderqueer people. remind them that you’re no different than you were before, you’re the exact same person, they’re just learning something new about you. good luck!

3:Talk about the person you've had the most intense romantic feelings for. My current girlfriend. She is one amazing girl and the first person i've been sexually attracted to (demisexuality is a killer on relationships sometimes.) shes one of the first people i've trusted to see me shirtless since i started cutting (and since recovered) i love her so much. I've been with her about 2 weeks and have had a lot of firsts with her so it's special.
