My Story *Possible Trigger Warning*

Hello everyone, just before you read on I'd like to give you a trigger warning for self harm references. If you think this will trigger you, please click away.

My Coming Out Story:
So, I am a bisexual female and I came out last year to a few of my friends and they were completely fine with it as expected. I then told my sister earlier this year when I started seeing a girl, and she was fine with it, as my brother is gay himself. I obviously then told him, too.
I was kind of afraid of telling my mum because I didn't think she'd believe me. I'd never really talked about girls before even though I'd always felt these feelings for them, and I always knew I was attracted to them. During this time, I was self-harming and my mum knew that and so did the rest of my family. I broke up with my girlfriend because it wasn't working out although we were both deeply in love (it was long-distance). I was obviously really upset, and I foolishly relapsed after being clean for a few weeks. I did this while my mum was in the next room, and when she came in my room, she found tissue covered in blood, and obviously questioned me as to why I relapsed. She was really upset and mad at me, and my sister was also there and knew I had split with my girlfriend. My mum was getting angrier because I refused to tell her what happened, and eventually my sister told me to tell her.

When I said "I'm bisexual", my mum didn't acknowledge it at all really. She just said I shouldn't be in a relationship because I wasn't mentally there at the time. It really sucked, and although she's fine now, it was a really bad coming out but I thought I'd share my experience with you.
