Sharing – Why LGBTQ+ youth have high rate of mental health struggles and how to address them
The bottom line is that when we talk about young LGBTQ+ people and the lack of acceptance they get from people closest to them, we run the risk of losing more of them to mental health issues. We could make a significant impact on youth mental health if we stopped stigmatizing and acting horribly towards people who are different than us.
If you’re not willing to do that, don’t tell me how much you care about mental health and young people.
