I am 16 and I have realised I am not straight for sure. I've been exploring my sexual orientation and identity, and I'm not sure who I can talk to for support and guidance. Are there resources available specifically for LGBTQ+ youth regarding sexual health and well-being?

If you’re not comfortable with your surroundings, you might want to start by coming out where it’s safest: whether that’s amongst your family members or friends. You may find it helpful to start with one trusted person. Prepare for questions & potential disbelief. Our society is still not that open. Maybe you feel uncomfortable for some days. Even well-intended and open-minded people might need time to accept it. But eventually they have to accept it. Organizations like Planned Parenthood, the Trevor Project, and GLSEN often provide information and support tailored to LGBTQ+ individuals. Additionally, many local LGBTQ+ community centers or health clinics may offer specific programs or resources. Online forums and websites like Scarleteen also provide comprehensive sexual health information for LGBTQ+ youth. Lean on your chosen community and surround yourself with a support system. When you are comfortable in your community, you are free to make your decision. Wish you Best of luck 👍

Coming out to super trustworthy people and preparing yourself for some disappointments, disbeliefs, etc will be very helpful! Also, you can always consider therapy. It can help you with a higher degree of self acceptance and face any other challenges that maybe coming your way!

You are just 16, with time you will get to know everything clearly. And what do ever be your sexual orientation, it's perfectly alright.
