I am a 54 year old man with gender dysphoria. I edited this picture to help me realize what I'd look like as a woman. Should I transition???

Oh fuck off with that... There's plenty of trans people who've never attempted suicide (may have contemplated it but never attempted) and the same can be said for people who suffer from clinical depression.
Me, I've contemplated suicide countless times and I've begged to have been killed countless times.. but I don't have the stomach to actually commit suicide because I don't want to put that burden onto my friends and family because I'm not some selfish self-centered cunt.

Trans does not equal dysphoria

for "transgender" maybe (includes traps/cd/drag queens/TS/"non-binary").
but to be a transsexual dysphoria is required

you don't have to be mentally ill to be trans, this isn't the 1950s anymore, trans is not a diagnosis, it's an identity. if you feel like the opposite gender, you are trans, you don't need a diagnosis for it or to castrate/sterilize yourself in the process. this is 2015.

So? It should still be covered as the proper treatment for gender dysphoria. But that doesn't mean that there's only one way to be trans.
