CW: Self Harm, abuse.

It's not easy being gay in a small country town. And as Zane C. Weber found out through his former lover, it's even harder when your whole family belongs to a very strict religion with very rigid beliefs.

This is a story about love, hate, guilt, anger and acceptance that will stay with you long after the episode is finished.

If you or anyone you know needs help, there are a range of crisis and help services you can contact. Remember: no matter how bad things get you are never alone. Reach out and there are people who will help.
