Transgender individuals had significantly higher rates of suicide attempts and suicide mortality compared with non-transgender individuals, according to a population-based retrospective cohort study from Denmark.
Among over 6.6 million individuals, standardized suicide attempt rates per 100,000 person-years were 498 for those who were transgender compared with 71 per 100,000 person-years for those who were not transgender (adjusted incidence rate ratio [aIRR] 7.7, 95% CI 5.9-10.2), reported Annette Erlangsen, PhD, of the Danish Research Institute for Suicide Prevention at the Mental Health Centre Copenhagen, and co-authors. Standardized suicide mortality rates per 100,000 person-years were 75 versus 21, respectively (aIRR 3.5, 95% CI 2.0-6.3), they noted in JAMAopens in a new tab or window.
Transgender individuals also had higher rates of mortality not related to suicide (aIRR 1.9, 95% CI 1.6-2.2) and higher rates of all-cause mortality (aIRR 2.0, 95% CI 1.7-2.4) compared with non-transgender individuals.
Notably, rates of suicide attempts and mortality decreased over the study period (1980-2021), but rates of suicide attempts (aIRR 6.6, 95% CI 4.5-9.5) and suicide mortality (aIRR 2.8, 95% CI 1.3-5.9) remained significantly high between 2000 and 2021.
Erlangsen said that this is the first study to investigate rates of suicide attempts and mortality among transgender individuals on a national level in any country. "It's unfortunately not surprising that there is a higher frequency of suicide behavior among transgender individuals," she told MedPage Today. "We were already worried that was what we were going to find based on what has been conducted [in] other studies, but this was the first study where we could examine this in an entire nation." - mpre -

Mental illness kills. Truth sets us free!
There are males, females and CONFUSED...
Who is truly shocked by this?
I mean, other than the people who can’t define what a woman is...
Maybe that could have something to do with their being screwed up and the Delusional Lying left cheers them on to their destruction?
How I hate the Delusional Lying Left.
I guess this eventually solves the problem?
Sounds like they are like a good dose of chlorine in the gene pool. Very late term Self Aborting.
Yes, that was a cold heartless comment. After 29 days of everything “rump”, I’m just a wee bit ticked off and my GAF meter is broken.
Somehow this will be blamed on MAGAs.
It is everybody else’s fault. Never their own. Always.
Responsibility is a dirty word today.
Puberty raises multiples of issues and today (and forever in the past) to the extent its "cool" kids want to be noticed so the trans movement - getting a hard multi-media push in case you haven't noticed - becomes the current "look at me".
What the kid needs is loving non-fad crazy parents and a good shrink. IMHO.
We knew a family friend’s daughter transition some years ago that ended in suicide later.
Suicide rates higher among crazy people.
Thanks for that newsflash
‘Suicide Rates Nearly 8 Times Higher Among Transgender People, Study Shows’
Why am I not surprised?!
Maybe they will all just die off.
Sick of hearing about it.
Before or after “treatment”?
I pray they gave themselves to Jesus become ending their lives.
That’s a shame.
That’s because their mental illness isn’t being treated properly. Mutilating their genitals and giving them powerful drugs just makes the mental illness worse. But Josef Mengele wannabes don’t care as long as they’re getting rich off the suffering of their patients.
