Explanation:

Cyberbullying is psychologically harmful to members of the LGBTQ community because, in the 21st century, technology is a major part of society. People's lives revolve around technology and LGBTQ members can potentially be subjected to cyberbullying every day.

LGBTQ individuals are harassed because of an identity that they can not control nor change, and this damages their self-confidence and mental health, spurring them to believe that their existence is "wrong."
