I have seen a fair share of gay people that are trying to find "cures and medication" to repress their homosexuality asking questions here. I remember having questions about my sexuality when I was younger, but never really considered changing or denying it. I was just confused. I do not remember people having this much trouble dealing with it when I came out about 10 years ago. I am only 30yo as well.
It is like A.D.D. This was a disorder that was never even really mentioned when I was growing up. Now it seems everyone has it.
What do you think causes this self-hatred lack of understanding?
What is the best advice you can give to those that are having problems accepting and loving their homosexuality? Or if you had hard times, how did you finally cope.

Maybe it is because you know that you can't be accepted by everyone. It is ok to accept that fact, it is not ok to reject it and add to it by not accepting yourself. Your sexuality is an intimate part of yourself that you shouldn't want to change for the sake of pleasing others.
You don't have to love your homosexuality and wear it on your sleeve AND you don't have to hate your homosexuality and reject yourself. You have to find a balance and learn to feel at least comfortable with it. Don't worry about what others think about you.
Everything will be fine.

false religious beliefs lead young gay people to suicide and self hatred, our society based on the Puritans that were kicked out of England have spread a disease of hatred that still exist in our society (the Republican Party) Slowly but surely their ideas and beliefs are failing because of Science and a new understanding of intolerance of hatred. Soon and very soon this will change. America is ready for a change and that will be shown in the next presidential election.

there is more self hatred because people are consumed with themselves. if they would focus on loving others instead of themselves they wouldn't have time to hate themselves, get it. got it, good
