I feel like the cliff is about coming out to some larger and/or specific public? I'm not exactly sure, though.
If this is the case, a few tips if they can help (you, or some readers!):
- you can jump to lower stages of the cliff without doing the whole jump at once - it can still be a step-by-step process, even as frightening as it is;
- remember to have safety net friends - there ARE people who can help you after the jump (either by caring for you or by letting you rest);
- rest after the jump itself. Retreat into a comforting coccoon for some time. Be proud of what you just did. You deserve it so much.
For some reason, I have in my mind my own coming out to my extended family, something that I had to do before meeting them post-quarantine because they were going to NOTICE that I was on HRT, as some cliff I had to jump off of.
Whatever is your cliff, I send you as much strength as I can gather. You'll be able to do it, and you'll survive the landing, too. And the jump will be done.
