I am Rebreb, and I am a bisexual cis-gender woman, staying at home 24/7 gives me
anxiety because of stress. I am used to going outside when stressed, to breathe and talk to
my friends. ECQ really gave me a hard time and kept on giving me anxiety attacks. Most of
the time I am deactivating my social media accounts to breathe in the middle of organization
or acad works and go back only when I’m sure I can handle the stress again.
Life inside a house where you can’t breathe properly is really hard, I know it is not just
me who experience this and there are other queer people who experience more than what I
do.
I am very lucky to be one of the people who joined queerantine sessions with PANTAY.
It is a LGBTQ+ support group during pandemic, once a week there is a session where we talk,
and support everyone on our own ways. It is not the only initiative queer community and allies
do for the community there are also projects where they give free consultations for the
members of LGBTQ+ community.
Initiatives like these really help especially during this pandemic where we are all at
home and some of us are not safe and continuously experiencing discriminations and hear
words we never want to hear from our own family for being who we are.
I hope these initiatives will not just stop during this pandemic and pride month because
we still have our brothers and sisters who are experiencing emotional problems even before
this pandemic and after this pandemic. Happy pride and stay strong everyone! Laban!
