I was asked if it is possible to one day see a cure for BID.  This was my answer, and I think it is important to understand.

"No, there will never be a cure per se. The only cure is to get what one needs for their body. The ones who achieved, as you can see here, are very happy and free from dysphoria. The thing is, BID is neurological; how one's brain is wired no way to change that.

As I said in my post, most people are not looking to be cured in any case, but they want what they feel they need for their bodies. They have suffered from BID since they were young, for the most part, and it is part of them. Yes, suffering from BID is a bitch.

You ask why anyone wants to be disabled like this. Well, so I wrote this a few years ago, which you may want to read:  https://www.reddit.com/r/biid/comments/130ngal/why/  One cannot say why; it is just part of them, just like GD is to a Trans person. One needs what they need.  The only cure for the dysphoria is to achieve what one's need is.

We know therapy and drugs do not help.  Many have tried this, and it does not help alleviate their need for their body.  It would only help if one is depressed, and it helps with anxiety.  One needs what they need, and that is the problem.

I am hoping one day, maybe not in my time, that the medical community will recognize our needs and give affirming surgery to people who suffer from BID. It is going to be hard for them to accept how much people suffer from BID and how much a person getting what they need for their body frees them of the dysphoria and the pain."
