As long as you stay in that closet you'll never be able to be happy. You have to accept yourself as a lesbian and come out with it. It's not easy to come out with something like that, but do you really want to keep living a lie? Once you take a new start, you'll feel relieved. Try to keep your eye on the future.

Check in with your college to see if they have a free or low cost counseling center (most colleges do). If they do, sign up to start seeing a therapist. they cannot reveal any information to anyone unless you threaten your life or the life of others. So anything you tell them, will be safe. You can ask them for advice on how to come out, if you're ready to come out. they can help you find healthy coping mechanisms for your depression and/or may refer you to a psychiatrist. They may also be able to help you find resources to help take care of your children (day care, if need be, stuff like that). I hope things get better for you dear, you can always message me if you ever need to talk privately.

would it be easier to come out if you slowly told closest friends and then family asking for secrecy and only when you see people youd like to tell you tell them, dont post on fb or anything or make a speech infront of everyone. do it in your own comfort and think! today is the day that people dont discriminate and if they do. they are the ones that are looked down upon. not you <3 be happy

These moments in life come up all the time because what we want out of life isn't what we get to be apart of all the time, the best thing to do is to keep moving foward, not letting the bad stand in your way of getting to the good. Also remember this fear is a superpower.

Don't feel pressured into coming out if you don't think it's safe for you or if you aren't ready. But if you have a close friend that you trust, it might be good to confide in them. But I definitely think trying to find a counselor/therapist through your college is a good place to start.

maybe you could withdraw from this semester or is it too late?
