Updated / Thursday, 29 Apr 2021 10:54 LGBTI+ rights are human rights. Niamh Delmar is a Counselling Psychologist and Mental Health Freelance writer. Here, she writes about how gender identity goes beyond the label of male or female. Gender identity refers to how individuals identify with their own gender. It embraces a range beyond the binary of male or female. A non-binary person rejects the concept of gender and does not identify with being exclusively a woman or man. According to Researcher Ari Berkowitz, our biology is not binary and many people have traits that are not in the male or female dichotomy. Exploration, fear, a lack of understanding and support are some of the contributing factors to adverse mental health issues. A national study of the mental health of LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex) in Ireland found higher rates of severe depression, anxiety and stress among adolescents in this cohort.
