Identifying yourself as gay or lesbian and telling someone else is often referred to as 'coming out'.
Coming out marks a significant point in a young person’s life. It’s important that this point is approached with care and understanding.
Coming out is a necessary and usually positive experience for many young people who grow up lesbian or gay. Coming to terms with your sexual identity can affect your social relationships, school, work and self esteem both negatively and positively.
