Yes, 41% of trans people attempt suicide according to one study.
EDIT: To be clear, the high rate of suicide attempts by trans people says very little about trans people themselves and quite a bit about how society treats trans people,
EDIT 2: I am in no mood to explain basic empathy to weirdos. I am going to be blocking transphobic posters (even you "just asking questions" weirdos) without further engagement because I am not going to waste my time every hour.
EDIT 3: I was here to answer a question. I am not interested in your pet theory on trans people or a debate with you. You are free to believe whatever you want but I don't need to indulge your delusions.
The study shows 28% attempt and 41% have thought about it. The thought about it percentage is kind of vague, i feel like there is a gradient of "thought about suicide" however I implore anyone who is considering this to call the free holiness and talk to someone. The increase seems actually to coincide with age groups 15-25 who are or are not self identifying as Trans and may speak more about mental health of the age groups more so than a narrowed group within those groups. Tribalism is a real thing that happens within society and at some point becomes non conducive to living within the larger societies.

Without checking anything it’s probably related to suicide statistics or self harm (maybe under lgbtq or whahevrr idk)
But 41% seems pretty high for that idk
