I’m growing to resent the LGBT community and the people in it.
Before I start this, I’d like to preface it with saying that I want HELP. Anyone planning on flaming me on the comments will only push me to be more to be LGBT-phobic. I want help. I don’t want to hate lgbt people. I’ve always been tolerant/embracing of the lgbt crowd. However, recently, I’ve become resentful, and something hateful is building in me. It seems like every in-person interaction I have with an LGBT person, specifically Lesbian, Transgender, or Bisexual, there’s an overwhelming “I’m morally superior than you and you don’t know suffering” For an example, I was telling some motivational, “overcome your obstacles and become great” speech, and they just straight up said that they couldn’t BECAUSE they’re gay. Then they told me they can’t because they’re suicidal and gay. I mentioned my struggle with depression and self harm and do you know what they did? Each and every ONE of them explained to me how my suffering didn’t matter because I had NEVER experienced persecution, never been through struggle because I wasn’t lesbian/trans/etc. They explained to me how little I would have accomplished in life if I was LGBT. This is, at minimum, the undertone that I experience when I speak to gay people in real life. It might have something to do with age, I’m a freshman an in HS. But I know that some people probably never grow out of this phase. I’m posting this to a few subs to get support and help me fix this before it becomes an actual issue and belief in me.
TLDR: Every LGT(not so much of an issue with gay men) person of met in real life has had special snowflake syndrome, and I can’t begin to vent about my problems with them without them trying to one up it. It’s starting to build hate and resentment in me.
