One of the most rewarding experiences for GLBT folks is to share our coming out stories with others. By recounting our personal histories we acknowledge how courageous and creative we are. This is especially true for those of us who submitted to gay reparative therapy of some sort. Perhaps you too are a survivor of the Ex-Gay Movement, or you overcame other types of great odds to become the person who you are today. Your story does not have to take you around the globe to be important and dramatic enough to tell.

If you are interested in submitting your own story, as well as reading the stories of other ex-gay survivors, please visit BeyondExGay.com.
