Post-traumatic stress disorder among LGBTQ people: a systematic review and meta-analysis

CONCLUSIONS: LGBTQ people are at higher risk of PTSD compared with their cisgender/heterosexual peers. This evidence may contribute to the public awareness on LGBTQ mental health needs and suggest supportive strategies as well as preventive interventions (e.g., supportive programs, counselling, and destigmatizing efforts) as parts of a tailored health-care planning aimed to reduce psychiatric morbidity in this at-risk population.PMID:37431310 | DOI:10.1017/S2045796023000586
