What if the cause is beyond their control?

Life can be challenging and on top of the usual pressures people who are LGBTIQ+ might be subject to minority stress, prejudice, discrimination, violence and abuse. While most LGBTIQ+ people lead healthy and happy lives, the impact of stigma and discrimination is that LGBTIQ+ people are more likely to experience depression and anxiety and be at risk of self-harm and suicide. But what can we do to support a loved one who's impacted? In this episode we chat with Dr Vanessa Lee-Ah Mat and Tarnia Lee from Qlife about what minority stress is, how we can talk to our loved ones about what might help them and explore some safe spaces and places they can turn to for support.
