so you hang out with trans people all the time?
or are you just talking out of your ass liek literally every other post you have ever done
https://www.trinityservices.org/services-and-supports/crisis-support/the-living-roomOnce a week I work for my sister who runs a mental health program in the suburbs of Chicago which is a city that has more transgender folk then most. Our governor JB Pritzker was one of if not the first to include "gender dysphoria" as a mental health disorder that can receive free government assistance through various programs. I do a 12 hour shift in what's considered sort of like a half way house for people with mental health disorders/addiction/etc. and in the 6 months since the program started the only people to attack staff(my sister included) and threaten to kill everyone were transgender teens and adults ages 21-35.
That's why I think it's even more sad because people with gender dysphoria get basically zero help in other states at least here you can try and help them. I'm not a behavioral health specialist I'm just there as a listening ear and in the case of total mental breakdowns there to call the authorities if people threaten people or just run away. It is open 24/7 and all types of medical professionals are in and out throughout all hours of the day/night. It's basically a place where people can feel safe as they go through some serious shit and it's entirely free.
No I don't hangout with trans people all day but I see them more then most people and that's why my judgment isn't totally biased. My sister does deal with them all day and I trust her opinion 100x over any non-professionals posting on jsp.
