LGBT students with higher risk of self-harm

LGBT students with higher risk of self-harm

Lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) students have a higher risk of self-harm and suicide than their heterosexual partners talk scientists.

The study still demonstrates, in fact, that a low summit has the ability to attribute an inflated risk of self-harm in LGBT students. A low level of doubt has the potential to lead to the fact that LGBT students will face discrimination or will try to accept or share their own sexuality with others.

The study was conducted by a team at the Manchester Institute, the Leeds Beckett Institute, the Lancaster Institute and the Edith Cowan Institute in Australia and is housed in the suicide research archives.

Dr. Elizabeth McDermott of the Lancaster Institute said: "the mental health of young people is considered a public task, and this study endorses the fact that lesbians, gays or bisexuals have increased characteristics of suicide and self-harm in comparison with heterosexual youth. We know much less about how young LGBT people seek support in connection with their psychological well-being or what kind of help will be effective."

The number of students LGBT people who filled in the online questionnaire, 65% in the direction of his own life and was not engaged in suicidal self-harm compared with 41% of heterosexual students.

Self-harm usually involves behavior such as cutting, pulling hair, scratching, burning or non-fatal overdoses.

And 35% of LGBT students tried to commit suicide in their own lives compared to 14% of non-LGBT students.

The study was completed by 707 students, the average age of which is 23 years, from 2 British institutions 119 identified themselves as LGBT.

However, the study does not talk to us whether the presence at the Institute increased the risk of self-harm in LGBT people.

It's not quite probably, in order to compare the student sample, the Prevalence of Smoking, suicidal self-harm and suicidal tendency among the General population.

Dr. Taylor stated: "Surprisingly, there is not enough evidence of mental mechanisms that could be attributed to the Association between lesbian, gay or bisexual and self-harm in English students. These data demonstrate how a low level of doubt has the ability to put some LGBT students at the highest risk.

"It is interesting, in fact, that the restless and suppressed signs were not relevant when it was taken into care of the summit.

He added: "in this way, prevention and intervention efforts aimed at these mental mediators by institutions have every chance to help reduce the risks in this population group.

"Institutions are already doing a lot of not bad things in this area, such as counseling and mental health care aimed at LGBT people.

"And the fight against discrimination and improving the recognition of LGBT people with the help of state politicians and campaigns in the global media have every chance to be useful in reducing any impact on self-esteem."
