Listen Later

In this special episode for Pride Month, I had the pleasure of chatting with Antonio Perez. Antonio shared his experiences as a member of the LGBTQ+ community living with multiple sclerosis. We delved into topics ranging from his MS symptoms to his journey of self-discovery and coming out. Antonio's openness and authenticity shone through as he shared his personal stories and struggles.

Antonio discussed his MS symptoms, including recent issues due to the Texas heat. We also explored Antonio's journey of self-discovery, from realizing his attraction to boys in third grade to coming out to friends and family.

Antonio shared his experiences with dating and relationships, highlighting the challenges of navigating the dating scene as a gay man with MS. We discussed the impact of social media, particularly TikTok, on Antonio's life and how it has helped him connect with others in the LGBTQ+ and disability communities.

Antonio offered advice for people who might be hesitant to come out, emphasizing the importance of finding supportive communities and events like pride celebrations.
