“Even though California is supposed to be the Golden State for all people, trans, gender-nonconforming and intersex people continue to have challenges accessing basic services, so the results are not surprising,” said Bamby Salcedo, the president of the TransLatin@ Coalition in. “There are not enough mental health providers who understand who we are as people and who are sensitive and non-prejudiced.

Her son, who is 16 years old and trans, removes all social media apps from his phone and tries to avoid the news entirely during state legislative cycles, she noted: “It is so incredibly hard for him to see queer identity being debated by our state. He says, ‘I can’t handle this attack on who I am as a person.’” She also gets more calls about bullying when lawmakers are pushing anti-trans policies.

Typically USA… always doing stuff half-ass.

That lifestyle does attract the mentally disturbed unfortunately

Which suggests that trans/non-binary is an indicator/symptom of poor mental health.

That's no different to normal people. And besides, nobody cares.
