If being trans is *linked* to mental illness, but not *actually* a mental illness, what is it? Genuinely, can one of the people who answered with that plot out your logic? I’m really curious.

Gender dysphoria is a mental illness and transition is typically considered the best treatment available.

Plenty of people have gender dysphoria but don't transition and that puts them at higher risk of severe mental health issues that go down with successful transition.

Therefore, the dysphoria itself is the illness while transitioning is a treatment of sorts.
