I outed myself to my online depression support group forum today. This for a few reasons:
- My therapist says that Rick will never get anywhere working on his depression without including Rachel in the process.
- The administrators of the forum, who are good friends and good people, say the same thing.
- It will never make sense to come out to almost all of the people I now know IRL, so I'm doing it with one of my virtual communities.
It turned out to be a VERY long post! :p So far, so good. I don't expect acceptance from everyone there, but I doubt that those who are not accepting are likely to say much, if anything.
