Do you know what it is like to be stuffed right at the back of the closet with very little room to move with all those clothes, shoes and not to mention the skeletons? It can be a dark and lonely place especially when you do not have a flashlight. Richard Harris' new book Closets Are For Clothes has been written in a no-holds-barredA" fashion. Looking at the accomplishments and complications that are part and parcel of life, when you are different from the rest of the people in your world. As you first begin to acknowledge yourself as gay, lesbian or bisexual it leaves you with feelings of dread, you know you are different and with this comes the emotional rollercoaster ride, just because you are attracted to those of the same sex. It is natural to think that this automatically removes you from the world, leaving you locked in the closet experiencing life through the crack between the doors - but it doesn't have to be this way, with a little guidance and encouragement you can come out of the closet. Think of how great life can be when you decide to open up and tell those whom you love about the real you, and when they accept the real YOU.
You are not alone, there are millions who understand your situation, there are those who have broken free and come out of the closet and those who remain locked inside. Allow this book to be your flashlight, see the clearer picture that will have you grabbing for the handle so you can set yourself free. You will discover the real person that is hiding inside that closet, a person that is a true individual worthy of love, respect and acceptance for being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. These are just labels by the way; they in no way define who you are as a person. In the book there are many coming out stories, they are from real people just like you, who were afraid of bullying, or homophobia, but having made the leap of faith in their friends and families, they are now living happy lives out of the closet. Come out of the closet, and come out of your depression.
