How do you find community? Im new to/hesitant about/unsure how to join the LGBTQ+ community. But its so lonely sometimes, being different with no one to talk to who gets it. What do you do?

      Thanks for the advice. I live in a small town in a very conservative area. I barely found out there's an LGBTQ scholarship at my school and some support groups (that i havent checked out yet), and it made me so excited.

      Check around where you live. In AZ we have SAGA, (southern Arizona gender alliance), SAAF (southern Arizona aids foundation) [ tho be careful of SAAF there's some transphobia in the organization. ] and a couple groups on Facebook that are decent. You can also look for lgbtq discord servers there a a few of those, but they are more likely worldwide. You could also find lgbtq YouTube's and befriend people in the comments or see if that youtuber has a discord. Jammidodger is a good one, ABDillustrates too, and then RadPax. All trans peeps. :3 Pax has a discord, the others, if they do it's probably sub based but I don't got money.

      I live in a very progressive big city so I'm not sure what you have access to where you live but going to groups of other queer people has always been a safe place for me. I went to a queer youth group as a teen and volunteer there with people my age as an adult. As much as it's a stereotype gay people kind of do all know each other and once you start meeting people it'll grow into a bigger community.
