Original Note:
The "Swedish Study" referred to here has long been incorrectly cited as proof of transition causing higher suicide rates. Dr Paul McHugh's analysis of the findings (in a WSJ op-ed) have been debunked, and the study's author (Cecila Dhejne) has herself condemned such claims. https://bethylamine.github.io/library/gc-arguments/the-swedish-study/ https://www.transadvocate.com/worlds-experts-condemn-the-mchugh-hoax_n_13924.htm
