I was very afraid, so much I didn't consider (and maybe you neither) that it doesn't have to be an all-in event. You can come out person by person, or if there really is nobody you trust, reach out to other queer people, organizations or online communities. They will always be responsible with not outing you, because we've all been through this. Exchange with other queer people helped me a lot with accepting myself and just the joy of being among people who "get me".
I know the fear of losing friends and I don't know you, so it might be warranted, but hiding your true self to not lose friends is also a terrible pain you're afflicting to yourself.
