That number represents 400,000 people more than the population of New York City, the largest city in the United States. It is also roughly equivalent to the populations of Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston combined, which are the next-largest three cities in the country. June is LGBTQ Pride Month, and it\u2019s significant for these 9 million people and millions of others for different reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the many challenges faced by the LGBTQ population, mental health is among the most severe. SoCal Empowered would like to help contribute at least a degree of heightened awareness to this serious challenge during LGBTQ Pride Month by providing an overview of LGBTQ mental health statistics as they currently stand in the United States. We have worked with people from this community repeatedly, and we welcome anyone who has serious mental health challenges and who needs residential mental health help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Psychiatry.Org Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019d like to begin our look at LGBTQ mental health by delving into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychiatry.org\/File%20Library\/Psychiatrists\/Cultural-Competency\/Mental-Health-Disparities\/Mental-Health-Facts-for-LGBTQ.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">survey<\/a> published by the American Psychiatric Association, or the APA. The survey revealed several troubling statistics, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>LGBTQ people are more than twice as likely to face a mental health challenge during their lifetimes as compared to heterosexual people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>LGBTQ individuals are 2.5 times more likely to encounter challenges that include depression, anxiety and substance misuse as compared to their heterosexual counterparts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>LGBTQ individuals do make use of mental health services at a higher rate than their heterosexual counterparts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the report relays an extremely troubling statistic regarding suicidal ideation. The following percentages of people of differing sexual orientations admitted to considering suicide in the past:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Heterosexual: 2.3 percent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gay or lesbian: 4.4 percent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bisexual: 7.4 percent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transgender: 30.8 percent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in the <em>best<\/em> case scenario, gay or lesbian individuals are nearly twice as likely to have considered suicide than heterosexuals. Clearly and sadly, there is a lot of suffering in the LGBTQ community, and that needs to be acknowledged, even during LGBTQ Pride Month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Center for Economic and Policy Research Report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Center for Economic and Policy Research recently published an <a href=\"https:\/\/cepr.net\/lgbt-adults-are-more-likely-to-experience-mental-health-hardships-but-less-likely-to-get-needed-help\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">article<\/a> further detailing the struggles relating to LGBTQ mental health. In it, the writers made use of data initially presented by the Census Bureau\u2019s Household Pulse Survey (HPS). That data included the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Nearly half (48 percent) of survey respondents reported feelings of anxiety for more than half of the days during the previous two-week period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>That constituted more than double (23.5 percent) the number of heterosexuals reporting the same.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>39 percent of LGBT adults reported feelings of uncontrollable worry for more than half of the days during the previous two weeks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>That\u2019s more than double (19 percent) the number of non-LGBT adults.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>24 percent of LGBT adults reported being unable to access mental health services when they needed them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>That\u2019s more than twice (9 percent) the percentage of non-LGBT adults.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The disparity between LGBTQ individuals and those not in these communities is abundantly clear, and LGBTQ Pride Month is a good time \u2013 as is <em>any<\/em> day or month \u2013 for people to come to understand it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Mental Health America Report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mental Health America has an <a href=\"https:\/\/mhanational.org\/issues\/lgbtq-communities-and-mental-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">informational page<\/a> on its website that provides insight into the challenges faced by the LGBTQ community. Their data differ slightly from some of the information posted above, but there are also important consistencies to focus on as we move through LGBTQ Pride Month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few examples of these pieces of information include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>4.5 percent of the population identify as lesbian, gay or bisexual.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Over 39 percent of LGBTQ people reported having a mental illness in the previous year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>That equates to nearly 5.8 million people, or roughly equivalent to the population of Wisconsin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>8.2 percent of millennials identify as LGBTQ.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>3.5 percent of Gen Xers identify as LGBTQ.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>5.1 percent of women identify as LGBTQ.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>3.9 percent of men consider themselves members of the LGBTQ community.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>48 percent of transgender adults have considered suicide during the previous year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>4 percent of the overall US population experienced suicidal ideation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This report indicates that, yes, the LGBTQ community is prevalent in our country. It also indicates that more young people are identifying as LGBTQ than those who are a bit older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LGBTQ Pride Month Information \u2013 Available Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, whether it happens to be LGBTQ Pride Month or not, there are numerous organizations and grassroot efforts out there that are dedicated to helping members of the LGBTQ community through tough times.
