PURPOSE
LGBTQ youth are a population who experience unique stressors. This study investigated their experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic via Q Chat Space-a national online chat-based support program.
METHODS
Transcript data from 31 synchronous, text-based chats collected during the onset of state-based "social distancing" ordinances in Spring 2020 were analyzed.
RESULTS
While encountering COVID-19-related stressors likely to be experienced by youth generally, participants' experiences were concomitantly imbued with LGBTQ-specific intrapersonal, interpersonal, and structural challenges. Difficulties included maintaining mental health, being isolated with unsupportive families, and loss of in-person identity-based socialization and support.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings highlight the importance of synchronous, text-based online platforms to enable LGBTQ youth to feel safe to seek support while at home. Given the potential for long-term physical distancing, concerted efforts are required to provide necessary resources and support for LGBTQ youth during the COVID-19 pandemic.
目的
LGBTQ 青年是一个面临独特压力的群体。本研究通过 Q 聊天空间（一个全国性的在线聊天支持项目）调查了他们在 COVID-19 大流行期间的经历。
方法
对 2020 年春季各州颁布“社交距离”命令时收集的 31 次同步、基于文本的聊天的转录数据进行了分析。
结果
虽然参与者遇到了可能普遍存在于青年群体中的与 COVID-19 相关的压力源，但他们的经历同时也受到 LGBTQ 内部、人际和结构挑战的影响。困难包括保持心理健康、与不支持的家庭隔离以及失去面对面的基于身份的社会化和支持。
结论
研究结果强调了同步、基于文本的在线平台的重要性，使 LGBTQ 青年能够在家中感到安全地寻求支持。鉴于可能长期保持身体距离，需要做出协调一致的努力，在 COVID-19 大流行期间为 LGBTQ 青年提供必要的资源和支持。
