[quote=Anonymous]NP here. If OP is still reading, I believe your story and I'm so sorry to hear it. My DC came out in MS & lost all of their friends (I'm hiding gender there - that's deliberate). Now in HS, my child has new friends -- but like you, we live in a very liberal DMV area & this 100% happened to my child so I completely believe your story. I am very sorry you lived through that; it's so incredibly isolating to have few to no friends and to have others ostracizing you. I think that social isolation actually *is* bullying, in my opinion. Anyways, I am glad that your suicide attempts were not successful & hope you are getting some supports. Does your HS have a Gay Straight Alliance? A teacher at my child's middle school was very, very supportive during the time period that the friendships evaporated. Reach out to supportive teachers if you need help & also please reach out to suicide hotlines if you need them. 1-866-488-7386 The Trevor Project Hugs to you! There are many of us out here who are parents and friends of queer kids and we have so much love for you -- and are so sorry for your painful journey. [/quote]
