text: I'm bi, too. I finally accepted it in high school, which was in a tiny bible-belt town in the Appalachian mountains. Not many progressives in the region. Coming out was such a liberating experience and effected me way more than I thought it would (in a good way!). That being said, be safe and be smart. LGBTQ prejudice is alive and well, and it would be smart to carefully consider who to come out to and when. Look into resources like The Trevor Project, It Gets Better, etc. You're not alone!
