'My parents weren’t expecting to have a gay kid. They weren’t expecting me to inform them of a new normal. I know that now. I also know that the way I’m treating myself during this pandemic—gently and with patience—is the way I wish I’d treated them then.'
The first time I cried during the pandemic, I was sitting on my future in-laws’ white couch in their Manhattan apartment. My fiancé and I were watching the movie about the guy who realizes the Beatles never happened, so he pretends to be the one who wrote their songs. It’s a great concept but a bad movie, though that’s not what prompted my tears. I don’t think any one thought in particular drove me to sobs that morphed into a panic attack.
