My brother is coming to visit in a few days, and I want to come out to him, but I am also absolutely terrified. How did y’all handle coming out to your families?

Honestly. I tried to point out how happier I was now and that I already started my transition. Basically they could not dissuade me. I also pointed out how I hoped they would be alright with my transition. And added that my brother and sister already knew and are supportive.
(And… also that my divorce was not a result of my transition but the affirmation of the self - which led to my transition- … I’ve denied my own identity in my previous relationship and prioritized the happiness of my ex-wife and did what I felt was necessary for the couple to work…)
