Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) adults in the United States are about twice as likely as non-LGBT adults to suffer from “mental health challenges,” according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

“LGBT adults ages 18 and older reported roughly twice the rate of mental health challenges as non-LGBT adults,” the Census Bureau said in a release published on June 16.

These results come from the Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey, which started in April 2020 after the beginning of the COVID pandemic, and which last July started asking respondents about their sexual orientation.

Overall, in surveys conducted from March through May of this year, 50.0 percent of LGBT adults said they had symptoms of anxiety, while only 24.3 percent of non-LGBT adults said they had symptoms of anxiety.

Meanwhile, 41.6 percent of LGBT adults said they had symptoms of depression, while only 19.4 percent of non-LGBT adults said they had symptoms of depression. …

Because they have inherently serious mental problems.

Compounded by the fact they want their serious mental problems viewed as “normal”.

Its why they will never be at peace with themselves or anyone else.

I hear they have a much higher suicide rate too.

That’s like saying since drunk drivers tend to get in car crashes more often, that car crashes cause drunkenness

Yup. The bizarre way they make the symptom the disease is creating a mess. If you look in the mirror and don’t see what you think and that upsets you, they just change the reflection. They blame every person for the mental illness who wont accept it. They were mentally ill to begin with. I admit, I wouldn’t mind seeing my young self with a full head of hair and 40 pds lighter, but I’m not going to go manic over it, claiming I’m in the wrong body.🤣

Gee, you think maybe doing things that are utterly opposed to your true nature would cause one to feel depressed/confused/hopeless/afraid? I’m as horny as the next (normal) guy but if I decided to ‘experiment’ and fall in with that crowd, I bet that I’d need therapy too.

They’re so depressed waaahhh. The entire media complex, major sports leagues and virtually every corporation publicly caters to their every whim but they’re still sad.

Liberals say it’s parental, family and/or societal lack of acceptance that causes their mental health issues and want nothing else discussed. PERIOD!

But their problems start very early in life. Usually with some type of family dysfunction like parental absence or improper bonding. Or sexual abuse. Then they compound their problems with acting out. How can people being reduced to objects to be used or dominated in compulsive, loveless, even anonymous sexual encounters not result in self-loathing, low self-esteem and at last, mental health problems?

The wounded so need the truth but in families, schools, and counseling rooms they are fed ideological nonsense and lies!

Declaring yourself an alphabet person is just a fad. Eventually it will go out of fashion and then they'll find something else.

About 3% of under 30 women have sex with other women. That percentage is the same for those declaring their political affiliation "Liberal" although there is an additional 8% of these ones who declare themselves LGBT while not having sex with women.

“alternate behavior” on it’s own is generally a serious mental health issue without needing embellishments.

Now you have an entire generation that is being indoctrinated/coerced/force-fed and shamed into “believing” that they are somehow part of the great wonderful “community” of people called LGBTQ+

I don’t care what anyone says but these kids are going to be F’d up BIG TIME when this lunacy collapses. yeah we should be expecting the now 22 year old man who was groomed into being a girl for a few years, to have major suicidal thoughts or mass murderer thoughts when he’s now walking around with titties and his wanker has been chopped off. When he realizes that society literally abused him into a circus freak—he’s either jumping off the golden-gate bridge or he’s going on a warren stacy 10-to-midnight killing spree!!

Or maybe their depression is actually a guilty conscience!

So, apparently half of LGBT persons aren’t seeking help then.
