Hi Beanbag0, do you think maybe you could test out what someone's reaction might be to what you want to tell them, e.g. just tell them some of what's going on for/with you and see where it goes from there, or maybe talk to them about someone else in your position and see how they react to that??? Then if they're receptive/accepting you might want to tell them a little more.

But I don't know whether it's fair on you to be trying to hide who you are/not be yourself (when you do want to talk) for the sake of the people you love. If they really love you, shouldn't they accept you for who you are?? Those are the kind of people who really deserve your love.
But I don't know your situation.......so just a thought..........maybe??
And if you want to talk more............
