As it is with most cult ideologies the majority of what they say is bullshit.  The suicide myth is particularly pernicious as it is used to coerce parents into consenting to have their children surgically mutilated in a misguided attempt to solve their mental issues.

The BBC has recently confirmed that rate of suicides DO NOT go up when mutilation surgery isn’t available.

“There is no evidence of a large rise in suicides in young patients attending a gender identity clinic in London, an independent review has found.

Professor Louis Appleby was asked by Health Secretary Wes Streeting to examine the data following claims made by campaigners of a rise in suicide rates since puberty-blocking drugs were restricted at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust in 2020.

Prof Appleby’s review concludes “the data do not support the claim”, and he added the way the issue had been discussed on social media was “insensitive, distressing and dangerous”.

This is the truth that the people who advocate for this transgender social contagion do not want you to know.

“That was recommended in the Cass Review, published in April, which found “remarkably weak” evidence on the use of the treatment.

In response to their claims, the new health secretary launched an independent review led by Prof Appleby which analysed data from NHS England on suicides of patients at the Tavistock clinic, based on an audit at the trust.

Covering the period between 2018-19 and 2023-24, he found there were 12 suicides – five in the three years leading up to 2020-21 and seven in the three years afterwards.

“This is essentially no difference,” Prof Appleby says in his report, “taking account of expected fluctuations in small numbers, and would not reach statistical significance.”

He adds: “In the under 18s specifically, there were 3 suicides before and 3 after 2020-21.”

The patients who died were in different points in the care system, including post-discharge, suggesting no consistent link to any one aspect of care, Prof Appleby noted.”

Make note this is what evidence based medicine looks like.

“Dr Cass’ review found there was insufficient evidence to show puberty blockers were safe for under 18s which is why the NHS has already stopped their routine prescription for children with gender dysphoria.

“We are committed to ensuring children questioning their gender receive the best possible multidisciplinary care, led by expert clinical guidance. That is why we are reforming gender identity services.”

So, when will Canada return to actual medical practices instead of the gender activist quackery that it is currently following?
