HELP- IM SCARED ABOUT MY SEXULATIY..

Submitted By: Dylan
Date: November 24

Hey- I am in desperate help... I am really scared about my sexuality. I know I'm gay. This has been clear to me since I was probably in the 5th grade. However, I have not told ANYONE that I'm gay. It has been my little secret. I come from a culture where being gay is very unacceptable. To put it in a nutshell- I'm black and was raised in the projects of D.C. I'm constantly asking God why I am like this. I have so much self-hatred- I think about it everyday. I have two older sisters who are in love with their husband and fiancee, and then there is me. But nobody can tell- I'm extremely masculine, and sometimes I even condemn gay people just to "fit in". And my "God Fearing" parents aren't the most accepting of gays either. So what am I to do? I contemplate suicide regularly, almost everyday- but I know that it would hurt to many of my friends and family. I'm scared. Please help.
