While that isn't indicative of the whole of the population - it has always made me wonder.

According to UCLA - trans folk are 18 times more likely to have attempted suicide in the past year cimpared to the general population.

Is a trans person more likely to commit suicide, or is a suicidal person more likely to change gender?

I wonder as one person I know tried committing suicide before transition.....

Did you bother to read the article you linked? The answers are right there.
