    Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 21, and I recently came to terms with the fact that I'm not straight. I came out to my close family and my friends as bisexual a few months ago, but I'm actually not even sure if that's a good definition of my sexuality haha.

    Anyway, I joined here because I've had a lot of emotional problems lately (both in relation to my sexuality and other issues), and was hoping to find some support and understanding. I like to talk to new people, and I'm really into illustration, comic books, and video games :slight_smile:

    Hi Lauren, welcome to EC :slight_smile:.
    I want to say I am very happy for you and proud of you for coming to terms with who you are. It is not something that is easy, and many people struggle with it. You don't need to label yourself. Just be yourself and if people can't accept you, you don't need to surround yourself with them. Surround yourself with people who love, care about you, accept you, and want what is best for you. I hope you enjoy your stay here and there are many amazing people here you can talk to and chat with :slight_smile:.
