Emotional Distress, Suicidal Behavior, and Help-Seeking Among Transgender and Gender Diverse People in Israel.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate emotional distress, suicidality, and help-seeking among Israeli transgender and gender diverse (TGD) persons.
Methods: TGD (n=139) and cisgender (n=275) participants reported on suicidal thoughts and behavior (STB), help-seeking behavior, and emotional distress (General Health Questionnaire [GHQ-12]) in an online survey.
Results: GHQ-12 and STB were significantly higher among TGD compared with cisgender participants. More TGD participants reported seeking help.
Conclusion: TGD persons reported high levels of emotional distress and STB, suggesting that their needs for mental health care are not met by the Israeli health services.
