This moment changed my life. In my country 1/10 of the population is watching this show, so I knew there was no turning back after this. I was doubting to even make a ”coming out statement”, but with my history in church I felt like there was no chance I wouldn’t speak up for the people who still fight and are stuck in a similar situation that I was for so many years. TikTok was also a big part of this process. When I was booked for the talkshow as the music guest of the week, I was gonna sing a song in the end. Because of that I wrote ”if I was gay”. That was my way to express everything I’ve ever felt. A few days after I wrote it, I also showed it to my parents in the car. I can still to this day not believe how important that moment has been for my life and for my family. That TikTok video changed our life. I’m so happy to announce that I am one of the TikTok Trailblazer #foryourpride I’ve always been scared of the Pride parade. I’ve been forcing myself to never be a part of one, but two years ago I walked my first and it was a moment I’ll never forget. Last year I was also touring Pride weeks and it was some of the biggest moments of my life. Whatever you go through! You are not alone and it will get better. For me it took 13 years. Do not give up! You are so loved. #happypride #pride #lgbtq #gay #comingout #comingoutstory #gaychristian #gaytiktok Carina Bergfeldt talkshow interview Andreas Wijk. 11 November 2022. Full show.
