2023: Josh Seiter's turning point, from coming out of the closet to overcoming death rumors

The year 2023 will undoubtedly be a year full of twists and turns for Josh Seiter. The former Bachelorette contestant, Chicago resident, Kent College of Law graduate, mental health advocate, and OnlyFans content creator bravely came out as bisexual this summer. An act that not only affirms self-identity, but also challenges society, Seiter's courage and honesty provides a source of strength and hope for many who are struggling.

However, with his public coming out, Seiter also encountered a series of challenges. He dated a male dancer, but the relationship ended. To add insult to injury, his social media accounts were hacked, leading to rumors of his death. This chain of events caused Seiter a great deal of stress and distress, forcing him to withdraw from social media and spend time in a health facility.

In a conversation with Windy City Times, Seiter shared some of his journey. He admits that the past few months have been extremely difficult for him, but he's also trying to stay positive and trying to learn and grow from it. He recalls his experience with electroshock therapy at the age of 21 and how he enrolled in law school six months after treatment, which made him realize that life is a marathon, not a sprint. The death hoax tested his resilience once again, but it also made him believe even more strongly that there is nothing he can't overcome.

Seiter also talks about his homeschooling experience and how he faced social challenges because he was homeschooled. His story reminds us that everyone's upbringing is unique, and that understanding and embracing these differences is the key to building a more inclusive society.

Seiter's story is especially inspiring during National Coming Out Month. His public coming out is not only an affirmation of self-identity, but also a challenge to society to encourage more people to be brave enough to be themselves. His experiences and insights provide invaluable support and advice to those struggling with mental health issues.

Seiter's story shows us that no matter how great the difficulties and challenges we face, we can find the strength to overcome them through courage, perseverance and a positive attitude. His experiences and insights are an encouragement and inspiration to all of us, reminding us to look for opportunities to grow in the face of adversity and to be brave enough to be ourselves.
