Sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals face marked disparities in substance use. The present narrative review explores research on substance use in SGM communities using a minority stress theory lens. We define the SGM population and minority stress, and explore stresses and substance use disparities in adolescence, adulthood, and older age. Though research on this topic is beginning to highlight the relationship between stress and substance use for SGM individuals, more work is needed on older SGM populations and in translating research findings to effective interventions.
性与性别少数群体（SGM）个体在物质使用方面面临显著差异。本叙述性综述运用少数群体压力理论视角，探讨SGM群体中物质使用的相关研究。我们界定了SGM人群和少数群体压力，并探究了青少年期、成年期和老年期的压力及物质使用差异。尽管关于这一主题的研究已开始凸显SGM个体压力与物质使用之间的关系，但对于老年SGM人群以及将研究结果转化为有效干预措施方面，仍需开展更多工作。
