TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hey, thanks so much for reaching out to TEEN LINE. It sounds like you're feeling confused about how to deal with your sexual orientation, and also sounds like you're not sure about how you truly feel. I want you to know that it's totally normal to be having conflicting thoughts and emotions about your sexual orientation; tons of teens go through it and very often feel unsure or lost. Have you considered talking to someone about all the thoughts you're having, such as a close friend or trusted adult/school counselor? A lot of times simply talking about something can be a great way to feel relieved and also to even realize/figure out your emotions or what you want to do. I also would like to refer you to a great resource called the Trevor Line. It's a hotline open 24 hours that's really great for discussing any concerns you're having with sexual orientation. The number is 800-850-8078, and I really encourage you to call them if you feel comfortable doing so. You're also welcome to call us here at TEEN LINE, we're open 6pm to 10pm PST every night and our number is 310-855-4673.
