Models controlled for age, birth sex (reference: male) and race/ethnicity (reference: white). No Change, no change in sexual identity; Change, at least one change in sexual identity across 4 time points. DEP, depressive symptoms; STRESS, Identity Management Stress; T1-T4, time point 1- time point 4; EST, unstandardized estimates; SE, standard error; *= significance at p value < 0.05.
