“I Tried” – 2 Years After Transgendering a Military Dude Kills Himself

“I tried” was his last Facebook entry.

Pssst, you were mentally ill and the medical world let you down.

  1. Changing your appearance is easier than dealing with your inner demons. Maybe he could have worked on his mind instead of his balls. This is very sad.

  2. I’m very surprised the progressives aren’t more willing to help the mentally ill like him and all people who think they’re something they’re not.

    How cruel can you be?

    You should be ashamed of your selves

  3. As a military brat, I went through the medical system the DOD provided, and my dad is going through the VA since retirement. Our healthcare ( the dependents) and the VA had/has always been an 0bamacare health system. It’s only going to get worse.

    This dude would have been better off volunteering himself to medical experiments than to expect help from the grubmint.

  4. Handsome man. What a waste. This is some kind of narcissism of wanting to see a beautiful woman when looking in the mirror, and in photos of one’s self, rather than just enjoying beautiful women who are others. It is overwhelmingly self-centered. Sad how it is not treated as the mental illness that it is, and leads so often to suicide like so many mental illnesses do.

  5. Ok, so it is generally held that most transgenders end up regretting their earlier decision to become the opposite sex. Stories abound of wasted lives, regrets, returning loneliness and all the things the transgendered person thought they’d changed when they underwent their transformation. Being transgendered seems to be a far less transforming personal experience than was expected.and, to many, even a worse solution in the end ( this story, for example).

    But, in the main, choosing to transgender yourself is still a personal decision that, while it may have a direct mental affect on loved ones, doesn’t physically harm them or isn’t physically directed at someone else, unless you count those who may be unwittingly attracted to them.

    However — and this is a big deal — normalizing what seems to be nothing more than a sexual mental deviancy (or sin, if you prefer), unlocks the door to normalizing other deviant behaviors like pedophilia. And if you were to go by the numbers, pedophilia is a much more common disorder than gender confusion or even homosexuality. There’s a whole panoply of sexual deviancy that has real victims. How does a society contain them when they are celebrated as a kind of personal “freedom” instead of rightfully condemning their expression? Am I then a sexual bigot for not wanting my child to be the target of a pedophile? It’s coming, I know it is.

  6. I won’t read it. This guy had a mental illness and it is sad he didn’t receive the help he needed.

    What are your options in society after becoming a transgender? For most, I would assume they only socialize with other mentally ill transgenders or sexual deviants. This can’t be healthy.

    There really ought to be a law (yes, and some may exist, because some people need to be protected from themselves) requiring mandatory counseling and a waiting period before surgeries. Maybe being exposed to the new life may dissuade a few. Doing otherwise is medical malpractice.

  7. A significant number of post-op patients come to regret their decision to have the surgery (some the minute they wake up from the anesthesia). Of course, the LGBTQ militants never want to talk about this, and I’ve also never seen an article by a doctor or mental health professional weighing in on this subject–just ones by the post-ops themselves. Thus are many, like this poor guy, led to a life of even worse torment.

  8. Why do they keep calling him “her?” He’s a screwed up mental case, and he’s better off where he’s at than struggling through life trying to be something that he is not. What’s so sad, is that he was a nice looking guy trying to be an ugly woman. I don’t get it, really I don’t.

  9. He was a heap better looking as a man than as a woman. Must have been a screw loose somewhere. May God have mercy on his soul, for the Father understands all things, even when our heart condemns us.

  10. I wonder how many of these people were rejected by either one or both parents when they were young. I personally know of such an instance. The young man was absolutely treated like dirt by his father who was a huge fan of porn and his stepmother tried everything she could to get him put in juvy. There is a need for real mental and spiritual healing to take place, not the quick “fix” of hormone and knife “therapy.”

    I truly feel sorry for these people. Thanks Kinsey.
