You have worked so hard to accept yourself.
There was a point in your life you knew there was something about yourself that wasn’t matching up with society norms.
Uncomfortable, fearful and lonely – YES.
Yet you’ve pushed through to understand and accept this as part of your true self.
It is a process and maybe there is more work to do. But you know who you are and you’re marching forward.
But wait….
You also know there are some in our society who do not appreciate diversity in their culture.
Maybe they have conservative values or religious beliefs that cause them to be this way.
You don’t have a problem with yourself, but it sure seems like a lot of other people do.
The toxicity starts to take its toll.
Anger can simmer beneath the surface as you hear about or experience discrimination or bullying.
Closer to home, well meaning friends or family members ask that you don’t hold hands in front of their kids. It would confuse them.
You wonder why a wedding invitation you just received does not include a guest option.
Resentments start to grow, and relationships get strained and tense which are affecting holidays and other gatherings.
You are always worrying which leaves you distracted, worn out, anxious and even depressed.
