Abstract
In India, the LGBTQ community has been legally recognized and acceptable even though the LGBTQ community faces problems. This research has discussed the major problems of the LGBTQ community and the main reasons and factors for the problem. Discrimination in society and lack of family support are the main reasons for the problems faced by the LGBTQ community. Lack of family support leads to LGBTQ young adults being more likely to attempt suicide, use illegal drugs, and engage in unprotected sexual intercourse. This research study has collected the primary data in the questionnaire through Google Forms. This study was conducted on 50 LGBTQ respondents among all age groups from Coimbatore District. The results are analyzed and some suggestions are given at the end of this study.
