Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
i tried to come out and my parents shook their heads and sighed. Fml. I’m never going to fit into this world. Ever since I came out, they haven’t been treating me with the respect they have been giving me before.
Maybe give them some time. Time doesn’t mean they don’t care or they are rejecting you.
It’s probably a little tense since it was a big conversation. Maybe they don’t want to upset you either by saying the wrong thing.
I’m sorry they shook their head, that’s got to be heartbreaking.
But I’m sure it didn’t change to them who you are.
Maybe try to communicate how you’re feeling & see if the response will settle the air.
Sending love your way.
