Wow that's a sucky situation. Email me, I'll talk to you. greysanatomy555@optonline.net
My friend went through exactly the same thing, and it was so sad for me to watch him struggle with his identity. Good luck!

i am not sure what area you are in but usually most cities have support groups for gays & lesbians. if you google that online you will no doubt come up with some groups that are near you. these are fantastic, especially if you have not come out yet and need support.
i can't think of any off hand. however, PFLAG was a group i contacted when a bf of mine ended up coming out and i didn't know how to deal with it. (PfLaG stands for Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays). a group like that would also be able to refer you to a support group for yourself.
know that you are not alone, and i totally applaud you for having the courage to accept yourself and wanting to live your life the way you want to. you deserve to be happy!

Hold onto yourself.Realize that it was brave of you to come out.And know that you will eventually make new friends.Just stay strong no matter how hard it is.I have alot of friends that were like you.Maybe find people on the internet in your area. Just don't let yourself go.

Seek out a support group in your area. You will find people there who can be of help.

I felt the same way until I went to a LGBTQ support group meeting to deal with my feelings.
Will you try it?

most major areas have support groups...I'd suggest that you give them a try....as far as your parents are concerned..why not call PFLAG(Parents and friends of Lesbians and Gays) ..they have great resources to help you and will not intrude if you don't want them to.

Turn to yourself it is your life and if you feel as if no one loves you, you should always love yourself. Another suggestion is that you get a journal and write about your feelings
