    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    I was sent a PM about these
    I've just started the coming out process and saw your post mentioning those workshops which sound useful.
    I was wondering if you yourself have ever attended any of them or know of people that have; what was the feedback like, is there anything to be aware off etc?
    - I responded to it but it might be helpful or useful if anyone else wants to respond as well

    Thinking of maybe going to one or two of these myself
