abstract
  • Dysphoria (also called Gender Dysphoria) is a psychological condition which consists of discomfort and a disconnect with one's assigned sex, often accompanied by a strong desire to change one's sex to better match their identity or to be called the correct gendered language. It can manifest in both psychological and physical distress which can lead to the deterioration of one's health. It is an intrinsic part of Gender Identity Disorder (GID) which is the medical diagnosis of being transgender. Dysphoria can be focused upon bodily attributes, treatment from others, or societal pressure to conform to expected gender roles based on their assigned gender. It is typically relieved if the person is able to transition, and therefore change their body and social situation to one which agrees with their internal identity. It is possible for nonbinary people to feel dysphoria too, for much the same reasons as binary transgender people. Cisgender may also inexperienced dysphoria for example males having man boobs and females having facial hair. Dysphoria is actually the opposite to 'Euphoria', or pleasure. It is thus the absence of pleasure, and is not directly attached to gender identity.
