1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

New Study finds a significant reduction in suicidality after trans people receive gender-affirming hormone therapy.

Given the number of transgender people buried under their deadnames by their family, there’s a pretty good reason why we see increased ideation and suicidality but lack data on suicide completions.
The "misinformation" in question here is that gender-affirming care reduces suicides among youth. It merely reduces depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal ideation.

A few things wrong here from our friends at City Journal but the most obvious is that a coroner cannot identify a corpse as transgender unless they've medically transitioned-- which reduces their rate of suicide. A living trans person, however, can report their pre-transition suicidal behavior.

A very, very important peer-reviewed empirical study published in the academic journal Pediatrics shows that hormone treatment of young trans people decreases suicidality very significantly.
Doubtless it will be ignored by Simonoff et al, who are not even measuring this in the “Pathways” study.

am i allowed to talk about how weird it is that the main way liberals philantropize trans people is by donating money to liberal nonprofits for call centers that beg us not to kill ourselves, instead of directly funding our material needs which, when deprived, lead to suicidality?
is that allowed?
is that allowed?
Sorry i meant to say we need more celebrities to donate $100 million to suicide hotlines so we can call someone who will beg us not to kill ourselves when the state takes away our medication and housing, and then send the cops to our home if we say the wrong series of words. My bad.

Even if it were the case that it only reduced suicidality as in suicidal ideation and suicide attempts but not completed suicides, experiencing suicidality is itself a significant harm. This matters.
Apparently Alito doesn't believe medical treatment reduces the risk of suicide which is both horrifying and unsurprising

I wanna take a moment to recognize all the love for Anthony Bourdain being shared today.
We can be extremely judgmental about depression and suicidality.
If/when it enters your personal life? Remember today. Suicidality does not invalidate ppl, or their experiences as living beings.

Brief 🧵, as someone who has studied mass shootings for 13 years:
-gender does not cause them
-SSRIs, no
-mental illness, no
-internet/gaming, no
Above can be compounding factors—but motive is complex, often very. The most fundamental combo:
suicidality + rage + isolation + easy access to guns
-gender does not cause them
-SSRIs, no
-mental illness, no
-internet/gaming, no

A trans person who attempts suicide but lives to transition can report suicidality. A trans person who completes suicide before transitioning will appear in statistics as cisgender. It's not that hard to understand.

this is the part where i note trans women are at a much higher risk of suicidality & self harm
Every mob that has ever run a trans woman off of socials has had a "valid reason" why they deserved it. But it's still systemic and endemic.

Post traumatic suicidality is often driven by our desire to escape a relationship w/ ourselves that has turned toxic. Decreasing post traumatic suicidality often starts w/ detoxifying our relationship w/ ourselves-- making our head & heart safe for our "parts" & inner child.
