Addiction in the LGBT Community

Unfortunately, members of the LGBT community are almost twice as likely to suffer from a substance abuse disorder than other groups. A combination of the harsh stigma surrounding gender and sexuality that leads to mental illness and the lack of unique support for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Queer/Questioning people means many in this community handle these issues by turning to drugs and alcohol to self medicate. This drug and alcohol use has even incorporated itself into a party lifestyle for certain LGBT members as they attempt to escape and numb their confusion and isolation surrounding who they are inside.
