no not really as an out gay man married to my husband I don't think it makes life any easier to be fair ........coming out and being proud of yourself is more important ...........think if you suffer with anxiety / depression it does not matter of you are gay / straight / black white or yellow

I do not think that this issue is at all related to anxiety.

I don't think being gay intrinsically is related to anxiety, but I do think there are a lot of external stressors that society places on people who are gay that can contribute to anxiety if you have it already or may have had a tendency to be anxious. Not everybody is lucky enough to have accepting families or friends etc. so I could see it being related to environmental stressors.
