I want gender dysphoria to be recognized for what it is - a mental illness. There is absolutely no shame in that at all. Depression is a mental illness - you'd never shame a depressed person for being depressed. Gender dysphoria, as a mental illness, requires treatment. 1/3

One of those treatments is medical transition - which works for many. Many trans people will tell you how transition improved their mental health and their quality of life. And they're right. 2/3

Another of those treatments is self acceptance - which works for many. Detrans people will tell you how self acceptance improved their mental health and their quality of life. And they're right. Dyshoria *needs* treatment that offer various avenues, not just transition. 3/3

Replying to @ImWatson91
For me, self acceptance was the correct treatment.
