I'm nonbinary. In addition to people constantly making fun of my existence, I struggle with my mental health. Yesterday, I was debating with some religious protestors at my college, and used my admitted past trauma to try and convert/discredit me, and I still wonder how someone could be that unkind.
The last four years have been crazy. Through familial abuse and foster care, self-hatred and mental illness, I've made it. It's because of my high school friends and staff that I made it. Though I live in a shelter right now, I'm the safest and happiest I've ever been. But I'm scared for the future.
