HazeltheHeretic Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 In this video, I open up about how my journey to discovering I'm bisexual totally clashed with how I was raised. Growing up in a super Christian household, there wasn't much room to talk about anything outside their beliefs, let alone LGBTQ+ stuff. It felt like the only option was to be straight. https://youtu.be/pKDw4dyjKWM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
◊ Weezer ◊ Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Welcome! It is great that you found your way out of the cult. It is interesting that only a few hours ago another female posted about accepting her bi-ness. It is great to feel free to be yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, my gayness clashed with what I was taught growing up. I'm sure we share some similar experiences too! Also, I only watched a little snippet of the video and will have to save it for later, but I see you also use Krita as well! Very good digital art program for being free, honestly!!

HazeltheHeretic Posted June 17 Author Share Posted June 17 Thank you! It is unfortunately too common that people grew up in toxic religions that stopped them from getting to be themselves. And thank you! I love Krita, use it ALL the time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I myself am still with the family until I find someplace else. Most LGBT-centric places seem to be cities though. And apartments everywhere seem to have such a crazy amount of rent. It's impossible to live without finding myself a roommate lol. Not entirely complaining though because one roommate doesn't seem too bad. Also yeah Krita has been my go-to for years! Still use it today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to afford anything right now, but I am sure a good roommate would help It's kind of nice to have someone to split the chores with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet one or two roommates would do me some good, and also each of us contributing to rent would help a ton. The other thing I'm hung up on is just where to go. I don't know if I'll go too far from my home state, but I still want enough of a distance to where I can breathe, live, and have space from my parents. I love them, but their views and beliefs are making it hard for me to be more authentic. I'm still looking for someplace, however. There's so many places out there it's crazy.
