The impact of being transgender  on someone’s  mental well being

Some people realize at an early age of their lives start to feel that that there is something wrong with  their bodies and that they dont match with the way they feel inside about themselves

Growing  up this feeling becomes more relevant especially when society starts to treat these people based on the binary conventions and their physical appearance which creates some psychological problems such as depression  anxiety and sometimes it leads even to suicidal thoughts

Tunisian society and the trans community : between rejection and ignorance

The trans community lives under a huge oppression in Tunisia due to the arrogance of people about  sexual and gender topics considering the latter a taboo.

Trans people while growing up they go through difficult periods of times where they don’t understand themselves, they feel confused,   misunderstood, they tend to be alone and disconnected from others because they usually end up hurt and mistreated from the society

Besides all the suffering they go through especially living in such conservative societies they are also rejected and disowned from their families and friends they end up in the streets persecuted from the police

It is never easy for a trans person in Tunisia to face their families and tell them about how they really feel about their gender identity because they are not accepted or treated as human beings . still to this day the majority thinks that trans people are against trasitions and social conventions  this another reason for trans people not to come out and live in fear
