Basically, i was adopted when i was (I think) a few months old. my adopted parents told me when i was a child, but have since thought i have 'forgotten'. Thing is, i turn 18 in just over 1 week, and have always wanted to find my birth parents. my adopted parents will always be my parents, as they are the poeple who have brought me up, but i just feel like a part of me is missing, like i dont know who i really am.
Thing is idk the first step to doing this? do i just find the local adoption centre andkinda go and ask them?
Do i need anything, i.e. birth/adoption certificate?
will i have access to all records, original birth certificate etc openly given to me?
i know it may be for the best, but will i have to involve my adopted parents in this? i really dont want to hurt them.
i really do know hardly anything about this, so any other info anyone may have would be really appreciated, and Many Thanks

(and apologies for the length)!
