Stoner says her decision to admit herself was driven by a struggle between her queer and religious identity, specifically the negative and homophobic messages being sent by those around her, including pastors.

“To hear from people you trust, from people you respect, from people you might even aspire to become, that you at your core are ‘rotten,’ ‘abominable,’ that the devil has a target on your back because of your position in Hollywood…it just sends you into a spiral, at least for me, because I just wanted to do the right thing,” theRecalling her experiences in the program, Stoner said it altered her perception not only of herself but also directly impacted her ability to have relationships.

“It severs the mind-body connection because I see the body as something that is shameful, that is not to be trusted. It actually ends up messing with my ability to foster genuine relationships with others and myself, because now I’m suppressing a voice,” she said. “I’m trying to change something that is what I now understand very natural.”
