“…Although we found that there was no signi cant difference between participants who identi ed as others and those who were heterosexual in depression among female participants, further work is needed to better understand the depression symptoms of this group. Forth, there is no data about gender identity in NHANES, therefore, we were unable to assess the potential in uence of gender minority (such as transgenders) on depression symptoms [49,50]. Moreover, sexual identity in adults over the age of 60 is not assessed in NHANES, there remains a gap to further understand the depression symptoms among sexual minority older adults [36].…”

Importance: Research on depression and suicidal ideation of sexual minority adults is needed to guide the development of targeted mechanism research and future tailored behavioral interventions. Objective: To investigate sexual identity differences in depression and suicidal ideation among adults in the US. Design, setting, and participants: The present cross-sectional study analyzed population-based data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005-2016). Participants included participants aged from 20 to 59 year weighted to represent approximately 788 million US adults. Exposures: Self-reported sexual identity categorized as heterosexual, gay/lesbian, bisexual, or others. Main outcomes and measures: The main outcomes were depression and suicidal ideation which defined based on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Results: Our study included 16602 participants (mean age, 39.5 years [95% CI, 39.2-39.9]; 8109 male participants [49.02%]). Male participants who identified as others had higher rate of depression than heterosexual male adults (odds ratio [OR], 3.08; 95% CI [1.06-8.99]). Bisexual male individuals had higher rate of suicidal ideation than heterosexual male participants (OR, 4.53; 95% CI [2.31-8.88]). Compared with heterosexual female participants, bisexual female had higher rate of depression (OR, 2.32; 95% CI [1.68-3.19]) and suicidal ideation (OR, 3.53; 95% CI [2.28-5.48]). There were no significant differences between gay/lesbian and their same sex heterosexual counterparts in depression and suicidal ideation. Conclusions and relevance: Results of this cross-sectional study suggested that bisexual female participants and others group of male participants had higher rate of depression compared with their counterpart heterosexual participants, furthermore, bisexual male/female participants had higher rate of suicidal ideation than those of heterosexual participants. There is a need for development of tailored interventions to depression symptoms of sexual minority individuals. Future cohort research is needed to examine factors that might contribute to these results among sexual minority individuals.

“…Previous research has shown that SGM individuals experience higher rates of lifetime victimization, including peer and sibling victimization, childhood maltreatment, and sexual violence when compared to their non-SGM counterparts (Mitchell et al, 2023) as well as face similar or elevated risks of IPV and other forms of interpersonal violence throughout their lives (Balsam et al, 2005;Edwards et al, 2015;Goldberg & Meyer, 2013;Pantalone et al, 2020).…”

Purpose The aim of this review is to investigate the mental and physical health outcomes of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) victimization among Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) individuals. This study adopts an intersectional lens to address an existing gap in research concerning IPV outcomes among SGM populations. Methods A systematic review was conducted through PubMed, APA PsycInfo and APA PsycNet utilizing specific keywords. Inclusion criteria included peer-reviewed publications from the last 10 years, and quantitative studies specifically assessing IPV outcomes among SGM individuals. A total of 23 studies meeting these criteria were included in the review. Results Our results show significant associations between IPV victimization and adverse health and mental health outcomes, including posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and attempts, substance use, and risky sexual behaviors among SGM individuals. Conclusions IPV victimization poses unique mental and physical health risks for SGM populations. Our findings highlight the need for comprehensive, tailored intervention and prevention efforts that consider the intersectionality of multiple minoritized identities in the context of IPV victimization.

“…In line with this statement, we know that many young individuals with gender dysphoria (GD), which is described as a "marked incongruence between their experienced or expressed gender and the one they were assigned at birth", have a high risk of comorbidity with anxiety, depression, and personality disorders [16]. Negative feelings and low self-esteem, which can increase the risk of depression and social isolation, are common among adolescents with GD who can be often involved in relationship conflicts with family, peers, and friends in various aspects of daily life and who can experiment exclusion or rejection from society [17][18][19]. In spite this, little is known regarding the specific relationship between social introversion, internalizing symptoms, and depression in adolescents with GD.…”

The personality trait of social introversion refers to the individual inclination toward the inner/outer world. Moreover, adolescents who experience Gender Dysphoria (GD) can be involved in relationship conflicts with family, peers, and friends and experience stigmatization and rejection from society. This leads higher distress in females which are more sensitive to this kind of feelings. This leads in them frequently developing a negative sense of well-being and low self-esteem which increases their risk of internalizing symptoms. So, the aims of this study were: (1) to investigate the presence of significant differences in Social Introversion (SI) dimensions between an assigned-female at birth (AFAB) GD group and a cisgender female group both diagnosed with a depressive disorder, (2) to verify whether the two clinical groups may be characterized by different profiles of internalizing symptoms, (3) to investigate if the SI dimensions could promote the internalizing symptomatology. Our results confirmed the presence of significantly higher score in GD sample for MMPI-SI scale and subscales and showed no significant difference in depressive profiles. Lastly, SI could promote internalizing symptomatology in AFAB underlying a link between SI and depression in this condition which should be further investigated.
