Let me start by saying, I grew up in a very strict, conservative Christian household and always felt that I needed to hide who I truly was. I came out as lesbian in November of 2019 and have had my family completely shut me out, some of them even disowning me. It’s been almost a year and there are people I have literally not spoken to since coming out, and it’s so hurtful and discouraging. Does anyone have any advice on how to cope with this or how I can calmly discuss my feelings with my family? Thanks in advance for the support!! #Lesbian #MentalHealthAwareness #BPD #howtocope #seekingsupport 🌈💕👩‍👩‍👦‍👦
