Mine was on June 26th, 1989 at exactly 2:11 AM. It was the moment I opened my door to find a police detective standing in front of me advising me that my husband of 10 years had been gay bashed to death by 6 teenage homophobes.
Having just shared this, I should point out, I have no sadness but instead many wonderful memories. To be regretful would be disrespecting what my husband and I had and the homophobes would win........and I don't like to lose.

I was 17 and just getting comfortable with myself. A girl that I dated, Natali, seemed genuine. The whole time we dated, she told everyone that I was just obsessed with her. She wasn't even sure why I was still around and that she was just using me for the attention.( I found all this out about a few weeks ago. It's been about six years since that happened. )
Soon after Natali, I started dating another girl. My relationship with Erika lost me all of my friends and any credibility I had as a person. Erika denied the whole thing and did the same thing Natali did. So pretty much no one wanted to be my friend. I had a nervous breakdown.
That was the lowest point of my whole life gay or not.

Sorry, but my life is not defined as bi or gay, or lesbian, and I think that it is just my life. I am bi and/or lesbian. I have come to accept that about myself and the cost that comes with it.
However, I think that in lots of ways my life is at an all time low. Despite a job that I love, and an increased sense of who I am. I am increasingly dissatisfied with how my life is spent.
I look after my mother's money, I make sure that my brother doesn't get so much of it that I can't pay the bills, and I have at least one of two children who have no respect for me.
Then there is the non existent love life. LOL
It can only go up from here.

The lowest point for me was when i was hiding everything from everyone, and I had to go around doing a lot of lying and sneaking around. I hated that. And it was solely to protect my parents from the hurt they would feel if they knew i was gay. They are very religious and I THOUGHT it would kill them. But it didnt. They claimed to have already known!!!
Other than that....i have loved my lifestyle. I have never hated myself for being a lesbian. I have never bashed myself and wished i could change it. After I got enough courage to be honest to my friends & family, i was able to fully enjoy who i am!!

Not much. I came out in high school and I only lost a few friends. It didn't bother me much. I was learning then about being myself and not being concerned about who disapproved. I learned to come out to all family and friends while I was a teenager in the 1980's. To this day, I still stand up to anybody who tries giving me a problem. Sometimes I get discriminated against at work with bosses and such, but I deal with it and I never wish I were straight. I taught my wife to be proud of herself, too because it's more important than living in fear. I'm the minister's daughter but I still came out. I feel bad for people who had it hard with coming out or those still in the closet. It felt easy for me because I wasn't afraid.

my lowest point was when i was contemplating suicide 2-3 years ago. I was really depressed in the closet and life didn't seem worth living. I had been affected by negative things reguarding my sexuality and I kept that built up.

If you mean a low point specifically because I was gay....
When I was a teenager and my parents threw me out of the house and disowned me because they found out I was gay.
If you meant a low point in general my answer would be different.

Having someone hate you for something you can't change, but perscuting you for it anyway, and basically getting a church together to discriminate against you. Yeah I'm talking about you Ann Coultier! But having to deal with that yourself is very difficult and can make you feel unloved.

I'm not gay, so I have experienced the lowest point in that part of my life, yet. But, rejection is a low point no matter what your sexual orientation. That, and the loss of a loved one.
