“If I had not been able to transition, I would have killed myself.” I see this sentence a lot. It’s means more to me, because I used to say it – and I used to believe it. It makes me sad, and it makes me angry. But it means even more than that. 1/5

That is why detransitioners are met with accusations of “liar,” “fake,” and “troll.” Not because trans activists actually believe we don’t exist, but because they’re uncompromising ideology requires that we don’t. Yet, we do exist. And we're not going anywhere. 5/5

Wow, this is so helpful. I'm currently supporting a teen who was suicidal because of wanting to transition but they also admit that transitioning wouldn't necessarily make them happy.

I don't know your whole story but I would imagine you were in a lot of psychological pain and you just wanted it to end. If someone (esp a Dr.) tells you transitioning is the only answer, then the thought of not being able to (to end the suffering) might well make you suicidal.
