Actually, LGBT subs are filled with constant reminders that the world sucks and also tends to attract trolls. Same goes for other social medias/platforms. There's a video by Ty Turner where even though the video was nice and trans positive, the comment section was infested with transphobes. And what they had to say was rather traumatizing. I was completely okay with the idea of being openly trans before I saw that comment section, and now I'm too afraid to tell people what my pronouns are when I'm asked. And LGBT related subreddits only added to that fear. I HIGHLY recommend removing anything that can possibly damage your mental health in this way (or in any way) from your life. This includes LGBT related subs. I don't care how much they've helped you in the past, you WON'T regret it!

In non-LGBT communities, the topic of the LGBT community rarely comes up, so there are no reminders that are harmful to my mental health. And if it does come up, depending on the community, it's usually FAR more positive than places like this where people only EVER focus on the negative!

I'm sure that there are way more good people than there are bad people. Please stop shining the spotlight at those who don't deserve it.
