Am I accepted?


Pip    

Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Pip and I am new to this space. I come from a Christian family and I am Christian however sometimes I feel things for the same gender. I haven’t told anyone about my feelings, and I am still worried  to because I don’t know if I will be accepted and I don’t know how to say it to my family. Also I don’t know how my future will be in relationships (girl or boy) so I can’t keep it a secret 🤫 forever.

Hi Pip, welcome to the Community.  It's great to have you here. I'm Aurora, I'm one of the support mentors here at Ditch the Label and I give support and advice to those, who reach out to us.  I'm really glad you found us. There are lots of others here, who feel the same as you. First of all, I just wanted to let you know that your feelings are totally normal and I'm sorry to hear that you've not been able to open up to anyone about how you feel.

I'm not sure where you live but there are more and more churches now that are trying to be inclusive of everyone, including the LGBTQ+ community. Do you go to church and do you know if your church welcomes LGBTQ+ people?

Hey Pip, 

Welcome! Of course you are accepted here. 

Remember that you don't have to came out until you are ready. And that you always have that right. If you telling someone a truth about yourself, it is never makes you worse, only better.
