The Sweden study is backed up by the Trevor Project (which I linked above somewhere) that shows as many as 80% of the transgender population have suicidal ideations and as many as 60% have attempted suicide. And this is from self-reporting. The stats aren't just from Sweden.

None of those stats are in the Trevor Project report. Cite the pages if you think they are, or surrender the argument.

It does say:

>Affirming gender identity among transgender and nonbinary youth is consistently associated with lower rates of suicide attempts.

And the report actually says nothing about transition healthcare.
