Description
Our Stress Has A Name:
Many LGBTIQ+ people carry an exhaustion that is hard to name: the cumulative weight of concealment, rejection, and navigating a world not built for them. For those from migrant or minority backgrounds, this weight is often doubled.
This session introduces minority stress and a psychoeducational toolkit designed for LGBTIQ+ people from diverse cultural backgrounds. Through a panel discussion, people from different parts of the world join as co-reflectors, exploring together whether these tools translate across cultures and what truly inclusive mental health support can look like.
