Thanks everyone...
I told my mum tonight, and in fine form of my mum, she didnt bat an eyelid. I mean she has one daughter and thats me and if she could handle me coming out, im sure something else would be fine too. She wanted to know a few things but the most important part was that i was ok and what if anything she could do for me...
Talk about grateful today! Sober and supportive partner, mum and best friends...life is good!
