Have you read any articles on this? Sounds like it will happen.
One claim is that 45% of transgenders commit suicide. Others claim this rate is too high, but the rate is still much higher than normal.
The trans-radicals push this high rate of suicides because they claim the kids kill themselves because they are bullied and discriminated against, and that their friends and families don't affirm them. (”So - you better affirm them, or you will lose your loved one.”)
Others believe that the person already had suicidal tendencies, or it was a result of their untreated pre-existing mental conditions.
Gender dysphoria is a very real thing, and causes a lot of anguish. There are numerous causes for it. In most of the recent cases, the cause is not that the person was “born in the wrong body” (which is an impossible explanation to begin with).
Not going after the root problem of the symptom (gender dysphoria), and treating it in such a drastic means and then the problem is still there - it would be very awful, and things might seem hopeless.
Note - one can begin hormone treatment on the first or second visit to a doctor, and saying all of the right things on why the person FEELS that they are the opposite sex.
BTW- you can search the internet for scripts of all the right things to say.
