I recently came out to my family and sense a rift between them and me. In particular, my dad and my stepmom. and my step sister. We were close until I came out. I have been feeling pretty down these last few days. I was diagnosed with depression in 2010 BTW. I am on meds for it. I look for help but its tricky. I want to go to church and get counseling there, but my church is not a safe space. Its not easy being a Christ following lesbian. I've just been kind of down, having little energy. Just sad in general. Another thing is that I've been waking up to a wet bed much more frequently. I don't have any dreams where I use the bathroom, I just just wake up wet a lot. I just need some help on how to deal with this stuff. It hurts to be gay somedays.
I suppose that you're seeing a therapist for your depression? Can you talk to them openly? Remember that you're not alone. Many LGBT people get through situations like this. It's difficult but better days will come. :icon_wink And if you wanna talk, well, then talk. (*hug*)
yeah. I can't talk to very many people openly. Only people at my school. My school counselors. Its not easy.
