I'm literally about to cry because my brother found me cosplaying for TikTok the other night, and told me not to post anything, but I did anyway. Tonight, he heard me singing in the kitchen and thought I was making videos so he came up to check. I wasn't but I just posted one a couple hours ago, but I lied and said it was friends only. He told me to take him down, but my mom overheard, made me delete my account, and forced me to give her my phone. Thankfully I still have my tablet, but that account was the only thing keeping me going and motivated, and now I'm worried if my brother finds me again, he's gonna tell my mom upfront and then I'll have no way to do anything. 3 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry that this has happened. You sound very upset and I can understand why you are feeling frustrated, especially if this was the only thing keeping you motivated. I'm wondering, is there a reason why your mom and brother don't want you posting things on TikTok? I noticed that you gave your post a trigger warning so I just wanted to ask if there was a particular reason for this and check that you are feeling safe?

I am glad you can activate it and continue posting. Moving forward is there a way you're thinking of how to post and make sure your mum does not take away your phone privileges? I want to make sure that you are being safe online ofcourse, but also being able to express yourself in a way that seems fit for you.

Have you spoken to them about it and maybe asked them if there is a way that they would let you use it eg with some restrictions in place? Also, just to let you know, I'm going to have to log off in a minute and I won't be back online until Monday. @Luie will be back online later if you want to carry on talking to them in the meantime.
