En savoir plus sur le livre

Feeling good inside and out should be everyone's goal. But lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) people often have a tough time as they grapple with issues such as shame, rejection, and low self-esteem. This book discusses the unique pressures that lead too many LGBTQ youth to alcohol, drug, and tobacco abuse, as well as to eating disorders, unsafe sex, and unwanted pregnancy. Learn how to cope with feelings of alienation and depression, confusion about gender identity and sexual orientation and how to integrate your sexual and gender identity with your larger self. Liking yourself for who you are is the key to getting and staying mentally and physically healthy. And having the support of family, friends, or trusted mentors can make all the difference for LGBTQ young people who are learning to respect themselves and each other and to lead healthy, happy, and productive lives.--
