女同性恋者、男同性恋者、双性恋者和变性人(LGBT)青年有独特的风险因素，使他们比非LGBT同龄人更容易患抑郁症。家庭排斥、欺凌和缺乏社会接受度可能会导致负面的健康结果。此外，患有性别焦虑症的青少年可能需要或受益于医疗干预。LGBT青年也有与非LGBT青年相同的危险因素，要求临床医生破译与性和性别少数认同状态相关的危险因素、一般危险因素以及他们之间的关系。在治疗LGBT青年抑郁症时，评估这些危险因素和实施有针对性的干预措施很重要。
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth have unique risk factors that predispose them to depression at higher rates than their non-LGBT peers. Family rejection, bullying, and lack of societal acceptance can contribute to negative health outcomes. Additionally, youth with gender dysphoria may need or benefit from medical interventions. LGBT youth also have the same risk factors as non-LGBT youth, requiring clinicians to decipher risk factors associated with sexual and gender minority identity status, general risk factors, and relationships among them. Assessment of these risk factors and implementation of targeted interventions are important when treating depression in LGBT youth.
