"High Rates of Long-Term Mental Health Issues in Transgender and Non-Binary Communities Revealed in Study"
TL;DR Summary
A study by the University of Manchester found that one in six transgender individuals suffer from long-term mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety, compared to one in ten in the general population. The lack of NHS gender services and difficulties in communicating with healthcare staff were identified as contributing factors. However, some critics question the reliability of the study's data and its use of ideological language, while the NHS emphasizes mental health as a priority and has opened new Adult Gender Dysphoria Clinics to reduce waiting times.
