How I did it: It has been a lifelong process. When your ideals aren't exactly those of your parents or the majority of your peers it's sometimes difficult to be true to yourself. I'm so happy that I am becoming more and more comfortable with who I am. Living openly has made me a much freer person, mentally and spiritually. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started putting away absolutely everything I could, quit eating out, moved back in with my parents, used my car minimally, didn't rent videos, etc... basically I only bought the essentials for about 3 months and at times even managed to put whole paychecks into savings.
