Gay Times has teamed up with the Years & Years frontman for a new campaign to encourage LGBTQ youth to discuss issues surrounding their mental health more openly. The Flag We Shouldn't Be Proud Of raises awareness of the harrowing statistics surrounded mental health around LGBTQ youth. In a call to action, Olly Alexander holds the iconic Pride flag with two of its six stripes missing. Those missing stripes represent the two in six LGBTQ youth at risk of taking their own lives due to issues surrounding shame, bullying, stigma, discrimination, dysphoria, anxiety and depression. Gay Times has joined LGBTQ helpline Switchboard in urging anyone wanting to speak to a friendly ear to reach out and use their services. You are not alone. Contact to Switchboard can be made direct via Switchboard.lgbt or 0300 330 0630.
