“…The non-heterosexual population, as well as other minority groups, suffers from an additional load of stressors that puts them at greater probability of harmful physical and mental health outcomes, including the perception of greater fear of COVID-19, as they feel more vulnerable to the disease (31) . Socioeconomic vulnerability, exposure to various forms of interpersonal violence, stigmatization, prejudice and social exclusion are examples of additional stressors to which the non-heterosexual population is exposed (32) and which can result in the perception of greater fear during the pandemic.…”

Bordiano et al (2021), recognizes the pandemic as a traumatic event, serving as a catalyst for mental illness, and there are some groups that are more susceptible to such illness.

“…Considering this huge level of spread and impact of this disease, changes in society's daily habits were crucial. As a result, psychological distress has become more frequent in the general population, in a way that its large proportion is able to jeopardize the affected groups' ability to respond 4 . Hence, urgent and emergent efforts -concerning each individual's social, cultural and psychological matters-are needed in order to offer different possibilities to resist the COVID-19 crisis.…”

DISCUSSION: The pandemic significantly affected the mental health of children and adolescents, presenting gender, age and social and financial issues as aggravating factors. Studies have pointed out the occurrence of anxiety and depression, with women, adolescents and LGBTQI + groups having a higher incidence. As solutions, there are the multidisciplinary work between families, health professionals and school environments with the purpose of offering greater security, knowledge, prevention and care. CONCLUSION: The mental health of children and adolescents was affected in a unique way due to the pandemic, resulting in diseases such as anxiety and depression.

“…Além dos danos à saúde já conhecidos, a pandemia pode ser considerada um evento traumático, sobretudo nos grupos que vivem em situação de desvantagem social devido ao preconceito e discriminação, como é o caso dos LGBTQIA+ (Bordiano & Liberal & Lovisi & Abelha). Assim, o cenário pandêmico gerou graves consequências para saúde mental desses indivíduos, os quais passaram a vivenciar com mais frequência a insônia, depressão, medo, raiva, abuso de substâncias e transtorno do estresse pós-traumático (Bordiano, et al, 2021) Dentre os estudos populacionais já realizados sobre implicações na saúde mental diante da pandemia do novo coronavírus, destaca-se o de Wang et al (2020) com a população geral na China, incluindo 1.210 participantes em 194 cidades, durante o estágio inicial da pandemia. Esse estudo revelou sintomas moderados a severos de ansiedade, depressão e estresse, em 28,8%, 16,5% e 8,1% dos respondentes, respectivamente.…”

“…Em recente investigação nacional, realizada com cerca de 9 mil participantes, que objetivou averiguar os maiores impactos da pandemia para a população LGBTQIA+, 42,72% dos entrevistados elencaram a saúde mental como o principal impacto vivenciado durante este período, seguida de "novas regras de convívio", "solidão", "convívio familiar" e "falta de emprego e dinheiro" (Bordiano, et al, 2021).…”

Objetivo: Analisar a saúde mental da população LGBTQIA+ frente à pandemia da COVID-19. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa realizada em seis etapas. A coleta de dados foi realizada nas plataformas BVS, SciELO e LILACS em julho de 2022, incluindo estudos dos últimos dois anos. Resultados: Foram obtidos 85 estudos, mas após os critérios estabelecidos, 21 foram selecionados para compor a amostra final. Verificou-se um aumento no índice de transtornos mentais em pessoas LGBTQIA+, como estresse, depressão, ansiedade, angústia, fadiga, solidão, conflitos familiares, uso de psicotrópicos e dificuldade financeira. Esse fato é preocupante, visto que essa população já possuía maior número de transtornos mentais, devido ao preconceito, vulnerabilidade e estigma social que foi piorado com o isolamento. As mulheres lésbicas e transsexuais se tornam mais propensas ao adoecimento mental em decorrência do acúmulo dos estigmas referentes ao gênero e orientação sexual e de uma menor percepção do suporte social. Conclusão: A população LGBTQIA+ nem sempre possuiu o amparo social e na saúde adequados, tendo em vista a realidade histórica de preconceito e discriminação pelos quais foram e são submetidos. Sugere-se novos estudos acerca dos impactos na saúde mental em decorrência da COVID-19, tendo em vista a escassez de trabalhos.
