VIVIEN_ Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) I came out to my mom and sisters a month ago. My sisters told me it'd just a phase and my mom told me to wait two years. I know for a fact that I'm bisexual but know one believed me. Should I tell them again and try to make them believe me or should I wait two years?

Even if you don't over time, they will realise that you're certain anyway, so that's why it's important to try to express yourself as much as possible and be authentic. What do you think?

VIVIEN_ Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 I think I'll talk to my mom again and tell her, but I know she'll have the same response. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIVIEN_ Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 I think I'll tell my whole family I'm bisexual on my birthday (May 29). I'm really scared but I know this is me and I want them to know. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know who you are and that's all that matters, and it's on her to accept and embrace your news. What do you think? Also, how do you think it will go with telling your whole family? It's completely normal and understandable to get scared at this point, and it really is just one of those things that when you've done it, you'll feel so much better!

VIVIEN_ Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 I suppose. Badly but if I don't tell them soon I might not ever tell them. I hope they'll take me seriously this time. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point, it's up to them to work through it, and it really isn't your problem, although you might feel like it is. What do you think?

VIVIEN_ Posted April 15, 2022 Author Share Posted April 15, 2022 There is a possibility that I'll have an episode on my birthday. I've been feeling very depressed lately, usually it's only a few times a month but it's been more frequent. We moved so I'm still not comfortable with everything.

Monsoon Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Hey there, Yeah, I've been wondering, how are you finding the move? What are the positives and negatives? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIVIEN_ Posted April 15, 2022 Author Share Posted April 15, 2022 I'm not used to the area and I'm very nervous about new places. I can start new here and work on myself and get therapy, but leaving MD made my depression worse because I was very attached my home.

Hey there, Yeah, this is a really big transition, and you might find that it takes a while to get settled which is completely normal and understandable. I'm sorry to hear about how it's made your depression worse; do you think it might get better soon, or do you need some help to work through it?

VIVIEN_ Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 When I was condoning in my lake. It was very peaceful and made me feel calm. Or when I was making a dessert. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
