Struggling with your gender and sexual identity? Get support from a LGBTQ-friendly hotline in Colombia

If you’re unsure whether you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, you’re not alone. It’s normal to question your sexual and gender identity. Whether you're questioning and need support, or you’re confident in your identity but you're experiencing other issues, there are 4 hotlines in Colombia that can help you with the following and more:

• Feelings of anxiety about not being accepted for who you really are
• Not knowing where to get or how to wear a binder
• Feeling constrained by gender norms
• Feeling constricted by gender binaries
• Dealing with trauma related to your sexuality or gender
• Fantasising about removing or changing your reproductive/sexual organs
• Finding it confusing figuring out who you're attracted to
• Feeling like how you are on the outside doesn't represent who you are on the inside

As an LGBTQ person, you deserve to be accepted, respected, and loved for who you are. If you’ve been treated unfairly by others because of your gender or sexual identity, it’s normal to feel intense negative emotions. Loneliness, confusion, and thoughts of suicide are often experienced by LGBTQ people.
