There is nothing wrong with being attracted to people of the same gender. Nothing at all. I know a priest who identifies as a lesbian and lived with a woman for 20 years, whilst holding services. Unfortunately some people still judge. I don’t necessarily believe in God but I saw your r&v. Another way of looking at that is that if God creates life, then why would he create something that is ‘evil’? Similarly, on a personal note, my mother identifies as a lesbian and I have lesbian friends who also have children and those children identify as heterosexual. My sister and I are a teacher and a nurse. If God existed and created anyone for ‘entertainment’ (I can’t remember the exact phrase you used), why would he (or she) make it possible for them to have children who do good?
Is it important for you to come out to your parents right in this time. Maybe you could take some time to work things out and find the best option for you.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.
Maybe you should work on your own feelings and being comfortable in your own skin before thinking about telling your family?

Can you talk to the group home staff? I get maybe you haven’t had the best experiences so far but the more you talk to them, the more they’ll learn what you need support with. Has anyone ever done any mindfulness or impulse control work with you?
Things sound really overwhelming-
I’m sorry you’re feeling so crappy. Keep talking to people though and explaining what you need etc. Do you have a MH team you see?
Can't you ask to change to someone else? You might find that you get on with someone new better and they may be able to help you more.

It sounds like you need the service of an advocate or your family to speak on your behalf. That way you can get a different therapist who you can trust.

I think you've said before you are in the US. Even if you are under legal guardianship (unsure if you are or not), you do still have rights. If they aren't listening to you, you should be able to ask for an advocate. If they refuse, you can reach out to your local legal aid society to ask for help finding an advocate.
That said, if you are under legal guardianship, decisions surrounding your care may have to go through your legal guardian. Not 100% sure how that would work or if that is your situation, but that is again where a legal aid society might be of use to help you better understand what rights you have as far as getting a say in your own care.
You could also ask for your patient rights or resident rights as a member of the group home. By law, they should have to provide that to you in writing upon request.
Please do not give me virtual hugs unless you are only using the hug function on threads. Thanks.
You can't always keep it separate.
This is happening, this is part of you.
