They&rsquo;re an international student, studying engineering and robotics here in Australia. They came out to one person they trusted. That person exposed them. Their family cut off their money. Their visa got cancelled. Three years of their life went sideways.</p> <p>They wrote the post not to complain, but to warn others. The core message: please stabilise yourself before you come out. Make sure you have savings, housing, a backup plan. Don&rsquo;t assume that because Australia is accepting, your situation is safe.</p>
