This can mean exploring your gender identity and sexuality, which can lead to and uncomfortable feelings. “It’s so important to seek help because no one should have to go through these kinds of overwhelming feelings by themselves.” For Kyra, coming out was really important. “It was the best thing I’ve ever done!” But it wasn’t easy.
