Stop cherry picking for starters.

2018-05-17 13:47:15 UTC  

Hooty, can you give me a quick recap what you have stated and what you have proven?

2018-05-17 13:47:37 UTC  

wat @M4Gunner ? went to make a tea

2018-05-17 13:47:40 UTC  

anyway, I proved transgender is not a mental illness now drop it

2018-05-17 13:47:51 UTC  
2018-05-17 13:47:53 UTC  

Uh

2018-05-17 13:47:55 UTC  

Hooty

2018-05-17 13:48:10 UTC  

You do realize that gender dysphora is classified as a mental defect right?

2018-05-17 13:48:12 UTC  

Because

2018-05-17 13:48:16 UTC  

It's an imbalance

2018-05-17 13:48:18 UTC  

In the brain

2018-05-17 13:48:28 UTC  

Like how other mental illnesses are imbalances in the brain.

2018-05-17 13:48:40 UTC  

So yes. Transgenderism is, by definition, a mental disorder.

2018-05-17 13:48:57 UTC  

If you take offense to this then you're just overly sensitive.

2018-05-17 13:48:58 UTC  

read the articles

2018-05-17 13:49:30 UTC  

Is sociopathy mental illness? As i understand you can predict that from brains of a child as well.

And i am NOT comparing the two just stating that your statement that is is not mental illness due to reasons of brain differences might not be as valid as you think.

2018-05-17 13:49:44 UTC  

@M4Gunner I'm a researcher in Philosophy. I don't have clients

2018-05-17 13:50:28 UTC  

No. On Theory of Mind and Mental Health

2018-05-17 13:50:34 UTC  

Trans was just where we ended up

2018-05-17 13:50:39 UTC  

A lot of things have been called illnesses in history. As i understand not believing in god was one of them.

I've worked in counselling prior which is where the work experience comes from

2018-05-17 13:51:47 UTC  

but that was basic "lets just say nice things to you and hope it helps because we have no money to train anyone" shit

2018-05-17 13:52:10 UTC  

oh and provide links to online CBT courses 😛

2018-05-17 13:52:44 UTC  

oh yeah its atrocious

2018-05-17 13:53:48 UTC  

6 month training course to be a practitioner in CBT in the UK. No prior relevent qualifacations needed. Fucking disgusting

2018-05-17 13:55:29 UTC  

Therapy, imo, requires time and investment on the therapists part to figure out what each patient would actually respond too

2018-05-17 13:55:44 UTC  

Most either don't feel they have to do that, or literally have a work load so high they can't

2018-05-17 13:56:05 UTC  

Eh...

2018-05-17 13:56:48 UTC  

Most people who engage in self-improvement shit are already doing CBT to the level a therapist would teach them to anyway

2018-05-17 13:57:00 UTC  

^ agreed

2018-05-17 13:57:09 UTC

Well as i understand what psychoanalysts say are less important as compared what patients say. Usually the main point of it is to make the people self-reflect.

2018-05-17 13:58:31 UTC  

@Omsomething yah, which means if you are already a reflective person its often just frustrating

2018-05-17 13:58:56 UTC  

That is CBT

2018-05-17 13:59:09 UTC  

Maybe, could be something one should talk with his psycho analyst.

2018-05-17 13:59:10 UTC  

the rest is just window dressing to make you BELIEVE you are doing something more

2018-05-17 13:59:23 UTC  

because that belief has been shown to have marked effects on success

2018-05-17 14:00:18 UTC  

It takes a lot of trust from the side of the pscyhoanalyst to have more "sharp edges" since it can really clam some people up.

2018-05-17 14:00:22 UTC  

I assume.
