I am @catfeeder@void.lgbt on a microblogging part of the Fediverse.
Be safe, and good luck.
Thank you good stranger!
@HelixDab2@lemm.ee I don’t see your reply from my instance for some reason so I’ll reply this way.
Try to get asylum in a less awful country.
Easier said than done unfortunately.
BTW, just want to point out that the implicit assumption here is that OP is queer, and wants to fund a support group. But it’s also possible that OP is homophobic, and wants to find queer people in order to publicly out them.
This is a fair concern although I doubt bigots would ask here instead of e.g. Reddit.
Yeah… I also read their wikipedia pages and they seem to sell a lot of sensitive info of their users. Not very trustworthy unfortunately.
Thank you, I’ll look into it!
Most people are on a local FB-like social media that’s extremely toxic. Also requires a phone number for registration… but I will think on it.
Someone actually recomended datapps to me to find queers so thank you for this warning. Though I would skip them anyway because they’re such a privacy nightmare.
what made you get out of that situation
A lot of help and support from people around me. Without them I would never be able to finish my college. And then overcoming my social awkwardness with a patient and caring person. Also gaining economic independence was huge for me.
I was kinda like your friend. There’s probably some obstacle that prevents her from working on herself. It’s easy with depression/anxiety to just blame yourself while ignoring obvious external reason.
