Current research on the experience of transgender and genderqueer (trans) individuals has demonstrated that discrimination against trans individuals is widespread. Trans individuals report significant psychological distress, and there are indications that this suffering is related to experiences of overt discrimination. Research has indicated that social support bolsters resilience among trans individuals. In this dissertation, I sought to explore the relationships among enacted stigma; felt stigma; psychological distress (depression, anxiety, panic, somatization, suicidality, hopelessness, self-esteem); feeling about one's trans identity (pride, alienation, shame, investment in passing as cisgender); and social support. This was completed through an online survey that was comprised of quantitative measures of these variables and qualitative inquiry into social support from family, friends, and trans peers. 309 individuals participated in the quantitative component and between 187-200 individuals responded to the qualitative questions. Results indicated that younger participants (age 18-24) experienced higher levels of psychological distress and more negative feelings about gender identity, as compared to older participants (age 31-64). Additionally, enacted stigma was shown to be associated to negative feelings about gender identity and higher levels of distress. Also, social support was related to reduced distress, reduced negative feelings about trans identity, and increased pride about trans identity. Thematic analysis was used to examine participants' open-ended responses to questions about social support. Results shed light on the complex ways that social support bolstered well-being and identity development, and lack of social support related to suffering and sometimes resilience. The implications of these findings for future research and for clinical work with trans people are discussed.
