    Fani posted an update in the group Group logoI don't know who I am anymore. 9 years, 5 months ago

    So I’m just now, for the first time trying out forums and such (so forgive me for not knowing the whole works) and I just needed to vent. My story is that I’m a gender-fluid, homosexual, Wiccan, male who deals with depression and often feelings of emptiness. But my problems may not be what you would initially think when reading this. I grew up in a healthy family environment where I was never judged for my religious or clothing/ gender choices. There are lots of lesbian women in my family, so my family has no reason to discriminate me for being gay. I’ve also never had a problem with who I am. I always shrugged off bullies and the general mongrels of the human population, as they don’t know the real me. But something happened recently that made me question my identity and ultimately threatened my sense of self. I feel lost. I’ve never felt this way before and I’m having HEAVY troubles dealing with it. I literally don’t know who I am or where I belong anymore. I’ve always dealt with depression and loneliness, as I used to be a loner and an introvert who kept to myself (mostly by choice). But it has gotten to the point where I’m in serious pain all the time. I’m surrounded by people who love me and all I feel is emptiness. Like I’m some sort of ghost wandering for eternity, constantly trying to reach out in vain. Nothing really interests me anymore, other than music and video games (on occasion).

    • Fani, all I can suggest is reestablishing what you like, what you love, and reestablishing everything in yourself. Find what you like in everything. What you believe in, what you like, et cetera.
      In addition don’t forget to bond with your family and friends. It’s super important!
