Abstract
Sexual minorities, comprising of individuals with non-heterosexual orientation or non-binary gender identities, are being increasingly recognized as populations with distinct needs throughout the world. These communities face several psychological and socio-political challenges, making them vulnerable to mental health conditions, including suicides. Research indicates a higher risk of suicidal deaths and attempts in sexual minorities as compared to the general population. However, this remains an under-researched topic in South Asia where social integration and minority rights are still in their nascent stages. This narrative review aims to understand the various issues related to suicides among sexual minority communities of South Asia.
