Why are transgender people more likely to commit suicide?

[The Architect Of Fate]

Accept that it is and not having it means trans people are not necessarily Dysphoric and your attempts at minimization changes nothing . 

Trans People are not by necessity Dysphoric so something else is the cause (discrimination)

That's the long and short of it

This is something that's actually debated quite a bit within the trans community.  

Some people identify as transgender and aren't dysphoric.  Others are dysphoric and identify as trans.

Personally, I had some dysphoria but I never recognized it as dysphoria until I actually started transitioning.  Frame of reference will do that for you.  I suspect a lot of trans people fall into that category.

Are there trans people who just plain ol' don't have dysphoria?  I suppose, but I'm forced to question why they would transition in the first place.  If transitioning put you through some of the pain and suffering I went through, why would someone choose to do that unless they felt like there was no other way?  At very least I'm going to say that there are very real and very important differences between dysphoric and non-dysphoric trans people.

The answer seems sort of simple . Too be who you really are .
