What sane people know instinctively. But the MSM and the Democratic Party embracing mental illness is no surprise either.
Plus, the evil Doctors getting wealthy off this.
The study out of Finland was published in the journal European Psychiatry, published by Cambridge University Press.
One of the slanders aimed at critics of gender ideology is that we are indifferent to the pain of gender-confused children. Nothing could be further from the truth: our argument is actually that the medical transition of these kids compounds the harm that already exists.
The proper treatment for mental illness is not to break out the hormones and scalpels but rather to treat the underlying cause of gender dysphoria, which has its origins in psychiatric dysfunction.[/b]
None of this should surprise anybody. What should surprise you is that an entire industry and ideological movement has been created based on exactly zero evidence that the dangerous treatments being given to children will benefit them in any way.
You are probably aware that as the United States has quickly adopted a “full speed ahead” approach to medically transitioning children, Europe has slammed on the brakes to procedures that were developed there in the first place. Sweden, Finland, the UK, Switzerland and others have essentially abandoned gender transitions for children based on the complete lack of evidence that it helps kids.

The GD group had received many times more specialist-level psychiatric treatment both before and after contacting specialized GIS than had their matched controls. A marked increase over time in psychiatric needs was observed. Among the GD group, relative risk for psychiatric needs after contacting GIS increased from 3.3 among those with the first appointment in GIS during 1996–2000 to 4.6 when the first appointment in GIS was in 2016–2019. When index period and psychiatric treatment before contacting GIS were accounted for, GR patients who had and who had not proceeded to medical GR had an equal risk compared to controls of needing subsequent psychiatric treatment.
Conclusion
Contacting specialized GIS is on the increase and occurs at ever younger ages and with more psychiatric needs. Manifold psychiatric needs persist regardless of medical GR.
