Growing up is already tough—but for LGBTQ+ youth, it can be even more complicated. Identity, acceptance, fear of rejection, and societal pressure all converge at a critical time in their development. These challenges can deeply impact their mental health, self-esteem, and sense of belonging.
Here’s what LGBTQ+ youth often face:
🧠 Increased rates of anxiety and depression
🏫 Bullying, harassment, or social isolation in school
🏠 Family rejection or fear of coming out at home
🩹 Higher risk of self-harm or suicidal thoughts
💬 Limited access to affirming mental health care
