I am a young Satanist and, although I protect myself and never talk about my occult and religious beliefs, I experience the bad outcomes and the harassement because of these beliefs.
It seems as if I had 'Satanist' carved on my brow, because everybody in my school calls me 'The Satanist' and, it doesn't bother me for it is true. Yet, it becomes a problem for no one as sympathy, or even, tolerance for Satanists. And I am everyday shocked by the ignorance and the stupidity around me, sometimes even bullied.
The second problem I came across, was the kids in my school who talked to their parents. Because the parents believe that because they are adults and I am not 18 yet, they have to take me to 'the right path', I am often scolded by people who don't even know me, and even if am I trying to stay composed and to be polite, it gets harder and harder to cope with it.
So, I wanted to know if any of you who read this had experienced something similar, and/or if someone had some kind of advice to try and stay calm with the pressure society puts us through. I now just wait for the moment I can leave school and go live my life peacefully with my beliefs.
Thanks
