    Hello R,

    It's nice to meet you and have you on the forums with us, welcome.

    Firstly, well done for sharing that with us as I can tell and understand that was a difficult thing for you to do but, you took that step. And no, there is nothing wrong with you, nothing at all. You are at/around the age where we go through specific phases and confusions in life, it is more normal than you may think.

    You say that you can't talk to your dad because of what he'd previously said to you. Well, how old were you when he'd said that as perhaps you were too young an age right at that time? Why do you feel you're not allowed to talk to your mum?

    When we're going through something difficult, which feels confusing too, we are more likely to feel alone despite being surrounded by people. This feeling is quite natural, and I can really relate to it myself as well.

    1) Perhaps you could write your dad a letter? Explaining how you feel, and what you are going through.

    2) It would help for you to create a thread in the "Gender and Sexuality" board/forum as that is a designated space for specific help and support on your confusing difficulty, as described here. More people will respond and offer you their help there.

    Again, well done,thank you for sharing and welcome.

    Hi R,

    You've been really brave in coming online and sharing your experience. Dealing with gender and sexuality is tough, and coming out as pansexual must have been a scary concept. As a teenager, experimenting is quite normal, so feel free to explore your gender and sexuality as you like. Not everyone is as accepting, as they may struggle to understand something that may conflict with their more traditional views. Be free to do what you like!x

    Much love <3
