On this International Transgender Day of Visibility, it’s vital to uplift trans lives while addressing stark realities like elevated su***de risks. A 2023 study from the Williams Institute at UCLA found that 81% of transgender adults in the U.S. have thought about su***de, 42% of transgender adults have made su***de attempts, and 56% have engaged in non-suicidal self-injury over their lifetimes.

Not that long ago, a woman could be locked in a hospital simply for being ‘too emotional’ or wanting to leave a marriage. Her feelings were treated as a problem to control, not a story to understand.

That history is one reason many women still fear speaking honestly about suicidal thoughts: ‘Will they think I’m crazy? Will they take my choices away?’

At the David Farber ASPIRE Center, we work to make care feel different: more honest conversations, more choices, and more respect. Asking for help should never mean giving up your voice.

For a long time, ‘hysteria’ was used to silence women instead of helping them. Women were mocked, ignored, or locked away when they were actually scared, grieving, or surviving violence.

That history still echoes today when a woman is told she’s ‘overreacting’ or ‘just wants attention.’ Those phrases can keep people from opening up about suicidal thoughts and getting help.

At the David Farber ASPIRE Center, we believe women when they say they’re not okay. It’s always worth taking seriously.

Poverty and su***de are deeply connected. Financial stress, housing insecurity, and limited access to care can take a heavy toll on mental health. This let’s work toward a community where every life has support and hope. #988
