Anonymous · 11 February 2024, 00:00 Main character syndrome Today, my mom found out I’m in therapy and took it as an insult, like therapy was a criticism of her parenting. Um, maybe if she hadn’t spent my childhood telling me and everyone in our family that having me was an accident, that I’ve been a huge burden, and that she should have aborted me.

Gay people are awesome, your mum just can't accept that. Don't worry though, because there are lots of other people who support you, like me :)
