Answer 2

The best thing to do is be honest about the way you are feeling, why you have been down lately, whats been playing on your mind let them know exactly what your going through.
It may be difficult for them to accept at first but in time they should adjust you are family after all.
there is actually a condition and i have seen it before where people feel they are born in the wrong body.
have a look at this site below see if it helps
good luck to you

Answer 3

Good for you. It's always difficult to tell any1 let alone your mum, you've realised something about yourself, if things get uncomfortable, and it may take some time for her to accept the truth, you are not dying. Tell her as a you have told the rest of the world (on here) plain and simple. Then let her digest it for a bit she's bound to have questions or maybe she suspected, in either case don't lose sight of yourself. This is about your life even if she doesn't accept this, you have had enough pain already be true to yourself girl and go for it. (I've called you girl because I am assuming you to be a Trans woman if not my sincere apologies but same advice .) xx

Answer 4

Take your mum aside, and be open honest and truthful, she may have a lot of questions to ask, so be prepared to answer truthfully, she's your mum, she loves you, ask her advice on how to tell the rest of the family, and between you both, this will work out, Good luck honey, xx

Answer 5

Just sit your mom down and tell her to keep an open mind but that you have something that you need to share with her. Be honest and do not be afraid of her reaction, which may be shock at first or she may surprise you and say that she was questioning your sexual preference herself. Regardless once she becomes comfortable with your choice she will respect you for your honesty and continue to love you unconditionally.

Answer 6

in private... tell your mum in private without having others around first. I hope that you've thought hard and long about this cos it will be difficult after you've proclaimed your status quo. It may take some time for your mum to accept your status but i have to put my hat off to you for wanting to be honest with your loved ones... Good luck!

Answer 7

Make sure they're in a good mood and tell them somewhere private rather than a restaurant in case anyone goes crazy and flips over a table!

Answer 8

if your family truly love you, then theyll be happy if your happy. There are much worse things you could be experiencing like being beaten in a violent relationship. Maybe youll feel better when they know. I hope you are happy x

Answer 9

Good on you for coming out and being honest.There is nothing wrong with what you are and you certainly shouldn't feel ashamed.I hope your family will understand and good luck.So go and tell them with your head held high.xxxx

Answer 10

Just make sure she isn't upset about something else when you tell her.

Expect a reaction from completely accepting to violent and anywhere inbetween.

Answer 11

tell them....lift this weight your carrying around with you...they will either support you or be shocked with you...but go for it....tell them to make yourself feel better, at least it will be out in the open....what have you got to lose? if they love you they'll understand, but don't carry this burden any longer, stop worrying, just tell them and see what happens
