Factual error in "Clinical Diagnoses"

Opened this issue · 0 comments

The diagnosis for gender dysphoria in adolescents and adults is included on this page, and a very important criterion is not included (it is included on the gender dysphoria in children section, strangely enough), criterion B:

The condition is associated with clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.

This criterion also means that the message at the end of the page, about how all trans people have dysphoria, is incorrect, as in not all cases will the presence of gender dysphoria symptoms cause clinically significant distress.
