Hey gays, let’s talk about how religious trauma can leaves deep scars of shame and self-loathing. Faith isn’t the problem—being told you’re wrong for being who you are is. Healing starts with finding safe community and untangling those harmful beliefs. You deserve love without fear. Believe in that.

Trauma isn’t just what happened—it’s what lives in your body now. For queer people, it’s the hypervigilance, fear of intimacy, or the voice saying you’re not safe. Healing starts by seeing triggers as protections, finding safe connections, and remembering: trauma shapes you, it doesn’t define you.
