Studies have shown that trans-identified young people have higher rates than the general population of autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, sexual/physical abuse (and I'm sure I'm forgetting some), so yes, you are right, rejecting your biological sex seems to be some kind of coping mechanism for some of these kids being sucked into gender ideology.

Oh, and a small Iranian study found significantly higher rates of Narcissistic Personality Disorder in adult transgenders; IIRC the study was only TiMs.
