The body is full of connections we don’t always hear about in school, and we’re here to share them. 💜

Societal stigma over your identity can be detrimental to mental health. The Trevor Project estimates that more than 1.8 million LGBTQ+ young people (ages 13-24) seriously consider su***de each year in the U.S. and at least one attempts su***de every 45 seconds. Prioritizing your mental health is more important than you realize. Visit https://www.thetrevorproject.org/resources/ for more resources and how to care for your mental well being.
