I am older (35-40) and living in a smaller community. It seems like most social events and support groups are geared towards younger folks. How do you meet others that are on a non straight journey at this age?
Hi! When Melisa and I were in our therapy group...this came up all the time. How do you meet community and find support without a group? We were so grateful for that open space to say anything or just listen to others and feel a "sameness". The truth is...women going through this are everywhere. I remember thinking it was so uncommon, but as I got further along, I kept finding more and more. Im sure Atlanta is different than a small town though. Best advice would be...if you are out...to find one other and create your own little community and let it grow from there. We have friends in small towns that found groups in cities nearby? And also women that posted their city on "the map" on Insta (lesbian chronicles) and found some people. I feel like you just need one! I had Melisa :) and we built it from there. But def been where you are and it's scary...just need one and so much easier. Join the group for your state on here too! It starts to grow exponentially...I promise.
