I'm so so relieved that I'm not the only one feeling this. I feel so much better after reading your comment because you truly understand where I'm coming from and what I'm feeling, in particular:

For me it felt like an intense sadness and sudden "otherness". Looking back at it, I think maybe I was also mourning the loss of ever having a "normal" life comparatively.

This is exactly it. It's true that consuming lesbian media and seeing more visibility helps, it did help me a lot in the past in fact. Currently though, I just feel more depressed because I'm not "living it", if you know what I mean. But I truly appreciate your comment a lot, because you truly understand me. And it's still true everything you said.

In the past it was useful. Fanfictions, series, I was obsessed as teen and helped me feeling normal and relate. It was also very exicting to see two women together as something how was not used to. Today is less of an interest. A good movie or story is always welcome, but media like site or forum really I don't like. I never liked a lot of so called lesbian culture.

I'm glad! And acceptance really is a process. There is nothing wrong with how you are living it right now, even if it's not the ideal.

Thank you once again. You sound like such a caring person. I wish you the very best and that you'll be very happy in life.
