Making this video was a very emotional experience and I will admit that I am quite nervous about how it will be received. The experiences I relate here are ones which I have only shared with a handful of people that I have known and trusted for a very long time. Now I'm offering them to all of you. I hope you will watch and share this video and that it will make you think, feel, and reconsider...

That video resonates with me in many ways. I admire your ability to be so candid about your past.

Don't be nervous about how others feel about it, it's your story, tell it however you want.
 
had to take a lot of courage to post that up. thank you!

wonderful to hear that you have reached the point you have and are feeling so strong and positive about where you stand. hope you keep taking these steps with the courage to create as you can help so many others! <3
 
Pretty emotional video to watch as well. Thanks for this and I admire your bravery. From the video you seem like a wonderful person. It must be so tough to try and cope with a family that chooses to be this ignorant and incredibly evil when it comes to someones sexuality. But a thing that I just wrapped my head around a little while ago is that I really am who I am, If I keep true to my morals, and follow a the path that my values lead me on, and accept all this as the correct and true way for me, then I found that what other people think doesn't affect me any more. My need to be accepted by others has disappeared and their opinions of me don't cause me pain anymore. I no longer worry about winning their approval or praise. Not to say I dont like praise any more, I probably like it more now than ever.. because now when I get praise it is praise for the real me.

Congratulations on you accomplishments against your struggles and on where you have gotten to today=D. Listen for, believe in, and follow your heart as its the only thing that knows who you are, how you should behave, and where you need to go. Don't worry about the approval, comments, direction, and judgment of others.. no matter how ignorant, harsh and evil... as the world and people are really so full of shit.. it can make you want to die.. If you accept yourself you won't care who accepts you. If you are doing what's right for you and someone says it wrong, or that you should do it some other way, or does not approve.. then you dont need those people or want them around anyway. Be yourself and the people who are supposed to be in your life will be there and all the others will disappear down the street, still yip yapping thier evil judgmental bull shit, at who ever hasn't learned not to to pay attention..

If you learn to love yourself then this allows the people who love you to find their way into you life<3

Wow that was awesome -<3- I admire your bravery and was inspired by your video.
 
I don't mean this in a particularly religious sense, but bless you for making and posting this video. I hope you continue to get better control over your demons, and that you find more happiness as you continue to recover. You're a young, good looking and clearly intelligent guy...I'm sure there's someone special waiting for you somewhere. All the very best my friend!
