I'm both transgendered and diagnosed with depression, and I've had good luck getting insured via Rudi Hoffman. I don't recall what the name of the insurance company was, and I haven't heard the final OK since the medical examination, but I don't foresee any difficulties. I was warned they'll most likely put me down on male rates (feh) despite being legally female, but I can deal with that even if I don't like it.
Same broker. Did you mention the depression to him explicitly?
Yes. I'm not taking any medication for it, which might have affected it.
That question never came up in my conversation with him, oddly. So I'm left wondering what the decisive difference is. shrug
