Marginalization of members of the LGBTQIA community is common and can make it harder to seek help for mental health challenges. Brenda, a person of mixed race who does not identify with a specific gender, shares some of the personal challenges they faced as a child and continue to face today.

This video segment is part of Not Broken, a candid and hopeful documentary about seven young people fighting to live their dreams despite their mental health challenges, produced by Arizona Public Media.
