Who am I?
Your identity is all the things that make you you.
It can include your personality, interests, culture, family, beliefs, gender, sexuality, background and experiences.
You might feel like you know exactly who you are, or you might still be figuring things out. Both are completely okay.
It's okay to explore
It's okay to explore
As you grow and experience new things, you might have questions about yourself:
Who am I?
Where do I fit in?
What matters to me?
How do I want others to see me?
You don't need to have all the answers. Your identity is personal to you, and it's okay if it changes over time.
Respect yourself and others
Respect yourself and others
You have the right to be yourself and to be treated with respect.
Other people may have different identities, backgrounds and experiences. We don't have to agree on everything, but we should listen, avoid making assumptions and, most of all treat people with kindness!
