In the least surprising clinical conclusion in world history, research published in the medical journal Transgender Health revealed the sizable mental health disparity between transgender and cisgender subjects:

We performed a cross-sectional analysis of the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses among transgender patients in clinical care using an all-payer electronic health record database. Of 10,270 transgender patients identified, 58% (n=5940) had at least one psychiatric diagnosis compared with 13.6% (n=7,311,780) in the control patient population (p<0.0005). Transgender patients had a statistically significant increase in prevalence for all psychiatric diagnoses queried, with major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder being the most common diagnoses (31% and 12%, respectively). Utilizing an all-payer database, although not without limitations, enables assessment of mental health and substance use diagnoses in this otherwise small population.

The researchers found “increased rates of bipolar disorder, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and substance use disorders” in the transgender population, among other negative disparities like schizoaffective disorder, panic disorder, and agoraphobia.

The study examined the records of 53,449,400 patients, so it was a huge sample size.

Of course, as one would expect from a medical journal called Transgender Health, the researchers were obligated to add the caveat that the divergent mental health outcomes were due to “the high rates of discrimination and violence transgender individuals experience” rather than anything inherent to the experience of literally believing you are living in an alien body that does not match your psychological identity.

Ever committed to the ideology, the researchers also take the opportunity to advocate for transing children as young as possible, suggesting that “the emerging field of transgender pediatric research has demonstrated improved mental health outcomes when children are allowed to socially transition at a young age.”

The fact that fags/trans are already insane sort of skews the above data.

Thats because they are twisted in the head and modern “medicine” is right there to help them out.

I don’t remember where I saw this....paraphrased...

“When I was 6 I wanted to be a pirate, but my Mom was kind enough to NOT schedule surgery to remove one eye, one hand, and one leg.”

Honestly, we have always known that these people have mental health issues. Why is this a surprise?

In other news, people covered in water are more likely to be wet than the average population.

Could be added to the list of deleterious effects God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified, (Mt. 19:4–6) and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with (extensive examination of prohomosexual polemics with refutations, by the grace of God). And which have been tragically primarily responsible for approx. 80% of new HIV cases among men and over 700,000 American deaths (although such is not even the decisive reason why homosexual relations are wrong).

Is that all?

Homosexuals are at 2,000% higher risk of contracting HIV/AIDS than normals, so they're just one big happy family with the trans's.

Yep. Hating your body to the point that you want to mutilate it is the definition of mental illness.

The account of how radical, activist homosexuals terrorized the APA into de-pathologizing homosexuality is very telling. Ryan Sorba wrote a rough essay about it, and the means to remove homosexuality from the DSM were anything but scientific.

"It was never a medical decision—and that’s why I think the action came so fast…It was a political move…That’s how far we’ve come in ten years. Now we even have the American Psychiatric Association running scared."
