It doesn't "make someone happy", it's just like being straight, it's a fact of life and it doesn't give any special feeling. It won't be "the reason you want to live". But not providing support or erasing people is really emotionally damaging to some. And not being allowed to to be themselves can lead to severe depression in people, causing them to lose their will to live and pushing them towards suicide. People do die everyday from being not allowed to use the right pronouns or express themselves the way they want to or being told their identities aren't okay and then feeling that they shouldn't live any longer. It's a real issue, and people I know have been in that place before. It's awful.
