Unhealthy/Abusive LGBTQIA+ Relationships

In this episode, we discuss what makes up an unhealthy or abusive LGBTQIA+ relationship. We discuss and share out the LGBTQIA specific power and control wheel, which shows different examples of abuse and manipulation that can be carried out in relationships. We take time to discuss how we can support someone in an unhealthy/abusive LGBTQIA relationship, including supportive language useful for difficult conversations, and other considerations. At the end of the episode, we discuss resources specifically for the LGBTQIA community.
