Mental Health Diagnoses Among Transgender Patients in the Clinical Setting: An All-Payer Electronic Health Record Study - PMC

We performed a cross-sectional analysis of the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses among transgender patients in clinical care using an all-payer electronic health record database. Of 10,270 transgender patients identified, 58% (n=5940) had at least ...

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Approximately 58% of transgender patients had at least one DSM-5 diagnosis compared with 13.6% of cisgender patients (p<0.0005). Transgender patients had increased prevalence for all psychiatric diagnoses queried (Table 1), with major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder being the most common diagnoses (31% and 12%, respectively). There was also an increased lifetime prevalence of bipolar disorder (11%) and psychotic disorders (4.7% overall, 2.5% for schizophrenia and 2.2% for schizoaffective disorder) in transgender adults. Ten percent of transgender adults had a history of a substance use disorder, including 4.2% for alcohol and 3.8% for cannabis.

Nothing unconstitutional about cracking down on ghost guns,

Why would you want to do that? Ghost guns are awesome, because the rotten state can't control them. The technology is getting better and faster with each passing year.

How many murders where a new gun bought in anger was used would outweigh the inconvenience of you making another trip to the gun shop?

How many times did a person need immediate protection, but couldn't buy a firearm because of dumbass waiting periods?

 

[aociswundumho]

LOL, says the person who think he can stop the insane from spraying bullets without restricting them from buying large magazines and the firearms that project them

Are you talking about cops?

 

[JMB1911A1]

I'd bet that waiting periods would prevent at least a few murders, but since the CDC has been prohibited from studying firearm violence, we may never know for sure.

Another post based on ignorance (giving you the benefit of the doubt).

The Dickey Amendment did not prohibit studies of firearm violence. It just said that funds could not be used for gun control advocacy. Fair and impartial studies were allowed. In fact, there was a study done in 2013 (5 years before the Dickey Amendment was repealed) that was so fair that the gun control industry asked the Biden administration to bury it. That would be the one that showed 500,000 to 3 million defensive gun uses per a year.

Emails Show CDC Removed Defensive Gun Use Stats After Gun-Control Advocates Pressured Officials in Private Meeting

The Center For Disease Control (CDC) deleted a reference to a study it commissioned after a group of gun-control advocates complained it made passing new restrictions more difficult.

Carol Bowne comes to mind. Stabbed to death by her ex (she had a restraining order but a piece of paper doesn’t stop a killer). She had been waiting 42 days for her permission slip to buy a pistol in NJ when the law states it must take no longer than 30 days. Gun control killed her.

 

[aociswundumho]

Guns make murder way easier.

Yes, and they also make self-defense way easier.

As demonstrated by our large number of murders by gun and our murder rates.

And that number is dwarfed by the number of people who use guns for self-defense.

 

[aociswundumho]

Nobody should be able to buy a gun angry.

Let's have the gun store clerk check the buyer's blood pressure first.

Sure I do. You are focusing on the gun. I am focusing on the crazy which has been enabled by leftists and liberals. This psycho could have driven through a bunch of kids at a bus stop and killed a lot more. He was mentally deranged and his fantasies of being trans were catered to.

Whatever caused him to spray bullets into a church. He sprayed bullets into a church with an assault rifle and a large magazine which he purchased legally with a 10 minute background check. No questions asked. You can’t sweep without a broom. But we all know you pretend to care about dead and damaged children. But we all know better. You talk about the mentally ill with no solutions. I gave you my solutions. All you have is liberal blame

 

[aociswundumho]

And what are the beneficial uses of guns, anyway?

If you don't know the answer to that question, then you're not qualified to even discuss the subject.

 

[aociswundumho]

Well we can keep them out of power if people would just stop voting democrat.

All you have is blame for the tool and no blame for the evil in that sick person’s heart. The gun didn’t make him kill.

And you don’t care about the dead nd damaged children. All you care about is how you can use it to advance your agenda. Heed the words of a fellow poster.

I'm going with zero. You think you have time to run to the gun store anytime something goes down?

Post 131. Carol Bowne. And she is just one of many. Waiting periods kill.

No, her ex killed her. Most exes use guns.

What's the waiting period for a shotgun?

 

[Luce]

The problem is not firearm designs that have existed for over 60 years. It is the new align of mental illness in our society. Illness enabled by the Democrats.

Which illness is that?

I assume you will cite the DSM V

 

[JohnfrmClevelan]

If you don't know the answer to that question, then you're not qualified to even discuss the subject.

I already listed more than he did. Shootin' beer cans, shootin' watermelons. Huntin'.

Advocating for guns so you can defend yourself against other guns is both circular and stupid.

 

[JMB1911A1]

No, her ex killed her.

So the weapon isn’t a factor now.

Most exes use guns.

What's the waiting period for a shotgun?

You can’t carry a shotgun in NJ. That is why a handgun is perfect for personal protection.

At least we have established that your number of zero people killed because of waiting periods was bullshit.

1.7 million defensive gun uses a year. And if someone comes at me with a knife, I am going to use a gun. Why give a criminal any advantage at all?

Why give criminals such easy access to guns in the first place? Guns lead to murder and violent crime. There's no escaping that fact.

Well, for one reason, people use guns to defend themselves 1.7 million times a year. Plus competitive shooting, hunting, recreation, etc.

But, I’ll tell you what. You disarm all the criminals first. Every single one. And then we can talk about disarming the rest of the country.

You seem to think by that they mean "transgender people".

Because you obviously didn't read it or even attempt to understand it.

Now, what percentage of mass shootings have been done by transgender people? I'll be sporting and limit it to non gang-related offenses.

You want mentally deranged people to continue to purchase guns easily. I don’t. That is the difference between you and me

Transgender individuals account for approximately 1.3% of mass shooters, while they represent about 0.6% of the U.S. population. So, they are punching above their wait at twice the rate of other groups.
