To my knowledge there is literally no other mental illness in the DSM where anyone would recommend responding to repeated suicide threats from the patient by capitulating to what they are demanding. Imagine if literally anyone else did that to a medical professional and how they'd be treated.

They would be thrown in the goddamn loony bin is what would happen to them.
Transition used to be a compromise that a patient went to along with therapy because is often no curing GD. Now it's being presented as a magical cure all and it's creepy AF.

Tbh most TIMs never had GD, they are AGP crossdressers.

They used to get filtered out by the psychiatrists.
