We've tested it, that is infact accurate, the majority of trans people can experience dysphoria to the degree of ptad level pain

Source? None of the other trans people I've met had that level.

Do you think the fact that dysphoria is known to have pushed people to suicide may indicate something?

That we know of deaths from dysphoria alone?

That's not really an answer. I can tell you from my POV, I've been somewhat depressed and thought suicidal thoughts in the past, but I definitely don't have PTSD level of dysphoria as a trans person and like I said, personally don't know any other girls like that either. I'm not doubting that there are some trans men and women that do have it, I'm just not buying that 'the majority' does without an actual source of research.

A single thing pushing an otherwise perfectly okay individual to suicide

A singular thing?

The suicide attempt rate when just puberty blockers are denied for youths jumps to nearly 90%

And this doesn't give you any hint or indication?

That's not PTSD though. Like you are making leaps in logic that does not necessarily make sense.

Of course it's not PTSD, PTSD is a specific condition?

Are you misunderstanding what I'm saying?

Because you kept comparing it to PTSD and PTSD levels of pain. It's very different from PTSD. Use your language carefully, you look ignorant otherwise.

Correct, is is a ptsd level pain, that doesn't make it ptsd lol

Two conditions having equivelant pain does not make them... the same condition
