Hi @Pine_Fish 😊
And welcome to the forums! And a big welcome from the LGBTQIA+ community here too! 🏳️🌈
I'm queer, so can understand how difficult it can be to feel accepted for your true self. But you are very much accepted by me and every one here ❤️
You've mentioned that you haven't come out to those around you, but know they will judge you - do you feel this way about both your family and your friends? How do you think they would react?
There is no rush to come out, it is totally up to you if/when you do it and how you do it. So don't feel any pressure to share with anyone until you feel ready to. We have some really great resources and links to LGBTQIA+ support services here that you can have a look through too.
