I would imagine that the main reason the suicide rates increase after one tries to become the opposite sex is because they get very lonely and even more confused. Let’s face it, even the kindest people are going to feel very uncomfortable around them....and it’s tough not to blame them.
Today's transgendered "men" aren't liberal as in the Bill Clinton type. These days they are "WOKE men"; very angry, touchy and emotionally explosive. For never is such a thing as being WOKE enough in the WOKE WORLD
"WOKE" is a very lonely place even for a biological male. Because if you aren't at the very top where the definers are, you better keep SILENT else you will be CANCELLED.
This isn't the world as in the 90s where liberals got excited to be debating anything. This the ROARING 20s, where THEY WILL ROAR AND EAT YOU IF YOU ARE NOT WOKE ENOUGH.
And sympathy around WOKE men? Get real, the only sympathy they have is for their WOKE social justice culture warriors on the front lines. For the blowback folks like AOC and the Squad get.
No, this "man" isn't just lonely but extremely lonely in a WOKE World or their own making.
Barnes, who is also a motivational speaker[,] said while holding back his tears, 'I also now understand why the suicide rate is so much higher with men, because this s**t is lonely.'
JudyinCanada: I would imagine that the main reason the suicide rates increase after one tries to become the opposite sex is because they get very lonely and even more confused.
I believe that the "motivational speaker" is referring here to the statistically established higher suicide rates among men, in general (in comparison with women) - not to the increased likelihood of suicide after "transitioning" (though that, certainly, is also an objective fact - indeed: regardless of the "direction" of the "transition," from male to female or from female to male).
And that is a very well-founded statement!
Men are far more prone to suicide. And I don't think that it has to do with higher testosterone levels, etc. - rather, I think that it's due to the more-onerous societal role men are expected to play, and the fact that society tends to view men as "expendable."

No lesbian wants to date a man pretending to be a woman and no straight woman wants to date a woman pretending to be a man. And vice versa for gay and straight men.
People desire relationships with men and women, not some in-between fourth rate mentally confused person.
