That's misinformed, I have researched the topic really deeply, and there are two reliable researches I'm aware of.
One is a little dated Swedish research. It shows that suicide rates among transgender people are higher than general population, but also show decrease in suicide rates in this group, which can be attributed to medical advancements and increased acceptance of transgender people.

The other is from joint research of the William Institute and AFSP (pic related). First of all, the research is about suicide attempts and not about successful suicides. These are much more common, so the % are obviously higher, and many could be just cries for help.
Second, which is most important, it doesn't account for time and circumstances when the attempt has been made.
The findings can be read two ways. The first one is that people post-HRT/SRS are more likely to commit suicide.
The other one, is that people with so strong dysphoria to attempt to take their own life, will also seek more risky ways to change themselves. The attempts could happen way before HRT/SRS.

Alerting are also rates for people who have been sexually assaulted at school, which can reach as high as 70%+.
If you read the full NTDS report, you can find, that
In K-12:
>MTF respondents experienced sexual assault more often (15%) than their FTM peers (10%).
>MTFs were at nearly double the risk for physical (7%) and sexual (3%) assault than their FTM peers (4% physical, 2% sexual) [from teachers]
>More than half (51%) of respondents who were harassed, physically or sexually assaulted, or expelled because of their gender identity/expression reported having attempted suicide.
>Of those who were physically assaulted by teachers/staff or students, 64% reported having attempted suicide. And three-quarters (76%) of those who were assaulted by teachers or staff reported having attempted suicide.

This is what's wrong with this world. Not the fact that transgender people exist.

Let's not derail anymore.
