    Live.

    That is the simple answer, it will be painful and confusing, heck i am going thru it myself right freaking now. I began to come out to people who are close and total strangers and it feels kinda frightening and i am scared, but i will keep doing it, because i need to change my life i need to live it just like others and i can't live it if i am the same, i can't fall in love openly or be with someone openly.

    So yea change at the beggining is SCARY, true in the middle it will be WEIRD and at the end it will be AMAZING.

    So i keep on holding knowing that when the time comes my efforts and suffering will pay off and i will be happy.

    So the only answer to dealing with change is to keep on going no matter how confusing it is. As for managing it, if it is something you are doing than you can control it by how much you inform people or how much you do, talk, if it is not your doing than it will be hard to manage, but you will be able to manage your response to it. Think of the Pareto principle in this way. 20% in life is what is happening to you, 80 % is how you react, respond to it.

    It is a matter of attitude.

    Keep on moving trust me it does help and it hurts as hell, but it will be worth it.

    Good luck and a happy life :)
