Depression Among LGBT Adults in Relation to Societal Stigma and Discrimination

Author(s) Srayasi Roy
Country India
Abstract This study has conducted a comprehensive analysis of the association between depression and 13 social stigma and discrimination among LGBT adults from India. The data was conducted using the Google form, a user-friendly and dynamic online data collection tool, to collect data from 46 adults between the ages of 21 and 30 years old. The discrimination and stigma scale DISC-12, which evaluates the extent to which an individual is subject to prejudice and stigmatization based on sexual orientation, was used to measure the prevalence of depression in the study population. The aim of the study is to gain a better understanding of the relationship between discrimination and stigma and depression in the LGBT community. This research has revealed a strong correlation between depression and unfair treatment, halting self-reflection and depression, stopping self-and unfair treatment, overcoming stigma and depression, and positive treatment and stigma. The findings of this research have implications for individuals, healthcare professionals, policy makers, and society at large. Recommendations for future research include long-term longitudinal studies, intersectionality, cultural considerations, mental health promotion strategies, social support groups and parental support groups.
