Resumo:
Objetivos: Avaliar a autoestima em homossexuais do sul de Santa Catarina e sua relação com várias variáveis como sexo, idade, bullying e tratamento psiquiátrico. Métodos: Participantes foram selecionados utilizando a técnica “Bola de neve”. A escala de autoestima de Rosenberg foi utilizada para avaliação da autoestima e subsequente comparação com outras variáveis. Resultados: 403 indivíduos foram entrevistados, sendo 310 homens com média de idade de 24,02 anos. A maioria da amostra estudada (80,9%) tinha alta autoestima, com um escore médio na Escala de Rosenberg de 5,55 pontos. Indivíduos que estudaram até o ensino fundamental, desempregados, evangélicos, com tratamento psicoterápico e psiquiátrico prévio, que sofreram bullying no último ano e aqueles que gostariam de mudar sua orientação sexual, tiveram significativamente mais baixa autoestima. 114 indivíduos usaram drogas psicotrópicas, sendo 47,58% benzodiazepínicos, com ênfase para o Clonazepam (27,58%). Conclusão: A maioria da amostra tinha alta autoestima. Houve uma diferença entre algumas categorias das variáveis estudadas, entretanto, todas as médias corresponderam a alta autoestima na Escala de Rosenberg. Benzodiazepínicos foram as drogas psicotrópicas mais utilizadas pelos indivíduos neste estudo.
