Hello advicenators, I am a 15 year old male and have struggled with self harm for 4 years and various eating disorders and I think I may be gay. Yes that is quite a handful of things, but I am bulimia binge free for 3 months and haven't cut for 6 days ( after a 3 week clean). I'm frustrated about my sexuality in general and feel different in the backwards little town I live in. I honestly just want to cut and fall asleep for a while and wake up and know for sure if I will be accepted and if I am more than bisexual. I grow weary of all this uncertainty, but I understand how there is no 100% way to know at my age. My mother knows, and she has been making offensive jokes about it and sneers at the very fact of it all... I want this to stop more than anything.(I am on Zoloft by the way for
depression)I used to go to counseling. I want to be on for five fucking minutes for once. That is my plea for help, and I'm not sure if anyone will even read this let alone have any solutions for my questions.should I be in counseling again, and is there anyone out there I can trust enough to let them help me?

Before I say anything else, it's totally okay to feel the way you're feeling. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being the way you are. It's disrespectful of your mother to be making offensive jokes towards you. You need to sit her down and tell her your feelings and if she can't accept who you are, hate to say it but she's being a terrible mother and she needs to know that she's not helping in your situation. As for the other things, it's really good that you stopped harming yourself however I do recommend you see a councelor just in case because with all the stress you're going through, it could come in handy and the last thing I would want for you is to hurt yourself. Anyway, if you feel as if you are gay, then so be it. If you are comfortable and sure that you are, then that is who you are and no one can change that about you. There are people going through similar issues as you, remember that. I understand you're frustrated about your sexuality but this is just a phase where you are trying to discover who you are and I guarantee you everyone goes on this path once in their life and it's all a part of life. It's better to know who you are then to not. I hope this helped:) also I'm 15 and we're about the same age so I get a better understanding of where you're coming from.
