What can you tell me about the mental illness of transgenderism?
<|assistant|>
Transgenderism is the psychological condition of feeling one's gender identity to be different from their sex assigned at birth. It is believed to affect close to one percent of the population and can have numerous physical and mental health effects, such as an increased risk of anxiety, depression, and suicidality. Many people identify with a gender identity different from the one they were assigned at birth, and it is important that people are offered unconditional support and a space to explore their gender identity, however they define it.
