Young sexual minority population under the age of 25 face and experience additional stressors compared with older adults. Younger adults, those who are under the age of 25, my experience uncertainty over their attraction and feel more distress because of it because sexual identity is still developing at that stage of growth. Furthermore, they are coming out to their family for the first time as young adults, though that could also happen later in life, or could be an ongoing experience. Young people, additionally, have fewer coping resources, having less time to create social networks and access to LGBTQ+ support. Younger age was also found to be associated with lower levels of social well-being among LGBT+ young adults. Cohort effect is also important to consider, that older adults grew up at a time when anti-queer attitudes and discriminations were more prevalent.
