LGBT people who have had to run away from home, how did you do it and how is life now?
I am a trans lesbian and plan on running away from my enviroment when i am prepared (mostly due to unrelated matter, but it does have a impact on everything). I wanted to see your experiences with it and how you are now, to help get a perspective on my future.
Hey, not to veer too far off your topic, but make sure you check out the resources available to help you. I don't know where you live, so here is a link if you happen to be in Canada.
https://www.youthline.ca/get-support/links-resources/
And if you are in America.

Stay safe.
For Americans, The Trevor Project also has a Resource page specifically for runaway/homelessness issues too:
