Self-assessed, self-reported psychological data isn't worth the electrons it takes to display it on a screen at the best of times, but with the trans-identified it's much worse. These are the people who consider misgendering to be "violence", and not believing they can change sex to be "literal genocide", after all. Any characterization they offer should be taken with a boulder-sized grain of salt.
Stanley, I agree with everything in your comment, unsurprisingly. I'm loving your timing too, because I'm preparing a guest post for next week by a researcher who's been in the weeds of the long-term clinical data and does a brilliant job of translating it into lay-speak. Stay tuned!
God bless and help you and yours.
