    This past year has been so hectic. My family found my Instagram account and has been crazy ever since. They're trying to change me from my "wicked ways" and I feel like I'm going insane. They deactivated all of my accounts and took my phone and have probably deactivated it by now. They've limited me going out and the subject of being gay always comes up in conversations. I have no earthly idea what to do. My sister will be finishing school in a few months, which will leave me stuck with my parents for two years by myself. I'm struggling with anxiety and severe depression and have been even before all this. Any kind words, experiences, and advice would be appreciated <3

    No words can express how awful that is....I wish I could be there to help you out more :frowning2: don't give in, just think of the positives. You'll be out of there soon, and you never have to go back if you don't want them too. Try looking into any LGBT clubs at school or such or talk to a friend at school if you trust them. Stay stong

    I myself am from south west Texas & I honestly feel that where I live is a safe for gay environment. My parents are Christians & I am myself. They arent really homophobic but they dislike the orientation. I have accepted the fact that im bisexual, but really my only fear are my parents.

    Just hang in there man~ if ya need anything ask me!

    Best of luck in the future!

    I'm sorry about what happened,the problem of homophobia is not much better in north carolina either, I'm afraid. Things will get better though and you have us for support!

    Oh man, i'm so sorry you have to live through that! I understand that Texas isn't exactly the best environment for LGBT people. Just remember, everyone on EC is rooting for you and genuinely cares. And if you ever need someone to talk to, remember that we're all here. Just keep on going. Life may seem tough now, but look to the future! Look for the positives! I understand that depression isn't something you can just "shrug off", but just remember to be brave!
