My mum’s new boyfriend refuses to accept me for who I am.

It’s already a challenge for a non-binary person like me to get by in the world, but it’s been even harder since my dad’s premature death. Mum has been with Barry for a while now, and the longer he stays in my life, the more toxic he seems to become.

Of course, it doesn’t help that I’m also in a constant battle with depression, aggravated by the questionable ethics of the company I work for. The best support available to me is my invaluable love life, but it would be impossible to reason with Barry if he knew the nature of our relationship…

The tension and uncertainty increase with each day the issue goes unresolved. I’ll have to face Barry eventually, but I’ve no idea how to do that, or what the consequences will be.

One thing’s for sure – I won’t be doing it alone.
