Why so many transgender girls are struggling with mental issues these days?

[SammiValentine]

It seems like 90% of the girls I know are struggling with some kind of mental issue. Of course I would say this has to do with being transgender but rarely I meet a girl that is just down to earth, relax, and not a drama queen. I know sometimes it has to do with their past and experiences though but hopefully I start seeing a change in this. I know also a few transgender guys (at least 3) and at least all the ones I know don't have any of these mental issues and they just live a "regular" life. So is it the hormones the girls are taking? or not taking hormones what is causing this? Ok now I am lost, LOL. what is your opinion on this?

I'm not going to get into discussing Miranda in the 3rd person.

How many of the people on here do you really know as friends or have had personal interaction with?
Would you expect or even want support from here other than something TS/porn related?
Don't you think that much of the support from here (or on other social networks where it's fan based) has little validity other than "fans" trying to appease or pander?

A few but we all drifted apart when Allanah, Sunny, and Dina's parties broke up. Those were the days. The days of trying to sneak 40's into Allanah's parties with NYCe, Pickles, and Bigguy are long gone.

No. If you want actual support there are small Transgendered social networks popping up left and right. People are tired of the drama associated with Facebook and are looking at different areas. Many are micro-sized, maybe 1,000 people worldwide but they can be much more supportive. Some have 24 hour chats which are cool. No chasing and no girls pandering. Just support, if Miranda is interested I can point her to a couple. Just send me a PM.

I personally know a few Brits here - and we meet (and i don't just mean escorts)

show me a normal person now these days?

Hormone induced body, social inequality will def bring in some anger in the oppressed human situation.

Social induced mental instability, chip in the shoulders is all a revolving history.

This does not mean or make a ts more susceptible to mental instability, self harm, or depression because it's part of transsexuality.

ANYONE in the oppressed situation would be as, if not even more affected.

I personally think that these girls are all fine, just that the problems are being created by society. If society wasn't as how it is on them then they would not be running into so many situations, lowering problems means less stress and more positive foundation to keep moving forward with their heads up. From the boys pointing their finger to the professionals at gov offices it all stacks up until these girls can't handle. If society didn't judge them and was fine and "normal" to them then this girls would feel more comfortable being themselves.

I wonder how much of what people talk about is actual mental illness and how much of it is behavior based on personality traits. For instance, I've met TS that you could tell had been abused or abandoned many times over, and they understandably had trust and anger issues. Then of course there is the problem with society not being particularly embracing or understanding.

However, then there are TS I've met that just seem to be naturally catty, flamboyant and quick to anger, more so than most (same thing with some gay men I've observed). Now, you have all types of people in the world, but maybe some groups tend to have more of one type than another.

I'm not putting this out there are any type of definitive opinion, rather just random thoughts on the subject.

Its a damn shame when a tranny starts off as an innocent young lets say 17 or 18 yr old and u can tell she has potential. You befriend her, and help her out thru her yrs of progressing. One day she gets tits, which are spot on, and u notice her ass developing and her dude face even changing into a gurls. Sex is still great, and sooner or later she changes completely, from innocent teenager fem boi, to a foul mouthed revengeful, spiteful, lying, money hungry hooker whore, on hormones one day and off the next... to someone you don't even get turned on to any further, and wonder how other guys can!!

You really need to make an exit from this board, first bragging about 'yoking' and beating up girls over in the NY Reviews thread and now this shit.

Your reply has nothing to do with this thread.

I second that.
