Addendum: Where do you see Glover?
Klein's 1935 paper mentioning ego-nuclei
>Well maybe I can help explain the problem. Like all mental disorders, homosexuals should seek professional help. You see, for upwards of 70 years the American Psychiatric Association classified it as a mental disorder. However in the early 1970s, homosexual activists campaigned violently against the APA, protesting at their offices and at annual meetings from 1970 to 1973. In 1973 the Board of Trustees caved in and voted to remove homosexuality as a disorder category from their diagnostic manual, a decision ratified by 58% of the general APA membership the following year. Since then the APA has updated its DSM and has openly renounced its former position. The homosexual protesters disrupted the APA conference by interrupting speakers and shouting down and ridiculing psychiatrists who viewed homosexuality as a mental disorder. In 1971, gay rights activist Frank Kameny worked with the Gay Liberation Front to demonstrate against the APAβs convention. At the 1971 conference, Kameny grabbed the microphone and yelled, βPsychiatry is the enemy incarnate!! Psychiatry has waged a relentless war of extermination against us!! You may take this as a declaration of war against you!!β
>That's not how science is done. Intimidation and public pressure isn't scientific. Despite even a "declaration of war" from these people, 42% of the APA still refused to cave in and they were ignored because of fear and intimidation.
>Dr. Socarides, writing in Sexual Politics and Scientific Logic: The Issue of Homosexuality writes: "To declare a condition a 'non-condition,' a group of practitioners had removed it from our list of serious psychosexual disorders. The action was all the more remarkable when one considers that it involved an out-of-hand and peremptory disregard and dismissal not only of hundreds of psychiatric and psychoanalytic research papers and reports, but also a number of other serious studies by groups of psychiatrists, psychologists, and educators over the past seventy years..." Just look at how many hoops the APA has to jump through to talk about Transgender people. The following is from their website: "According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, people who experience intense, persistent gender incongruence can be given the diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Some contend that the diagnosis inappropriately pathologizes gender noncongruence and should be eliminated. Others argue it is essential to retain the diagnosis to ensure acces

The study argues that transgender identity shouldn't be classified as "mental illness" because the distress and dysfunction were mostly due to social rejection rather than being transgender per se.
However, I wonder what the study say about gender dysphoria. Does the study indirectly say that gender dysphoria doesn't exist (the distress being connected to social rejection) or do they distinguish "transgender identity" from "gender dysphoria" (like what the DSM do) and say that dysphoria can cause distress?
we already classify by symptom, and an emerging work is working towards classification by neurobiological aetiology, but how about something more useful for patients than clinicians and researchers?
categorising of mental disorders by the degree of similarity of cognition-based treatment for instance, ptsd and ocd and treated with ERP therapy, one for dealing with the past, one for the future - they can be classified as intrusive
comparably, CBT treated disorders can be thought of as distorting disorders
importantly, non-stigmatising terms ought to be used, instead of instrusive and distorting, which are working terms
These days, it is quite trendy in leftist youth political "justice" groups to push forward this idea of people feeling guilty because of the colouur of their skin, with this effort being particularly focused on whlte individuals, that all whlte ppl should themselves feel colllectively guilty about the s!ns of their forefathers. This concept is a blunt force instrument used by the "priestly class" of leftist politicians, media moguls, cultural critics, activist zealots, to bash white individuals over the head with shame and humiliation, almost in a religious-like way, akin to the "original sin" in Christianity... as if it is something one is born with and can never repent for, that keeps you eternally "guilty". And just like in Christianity, that priestly class who pedal the ideology of racebaased guilt offer up the opportunity of "indulgences" to their bra!nwashed congregation to offset their "guilt", where these believers willingly hand over anythiing they can in order to wash themselves of these "sins". You can even find plenty of videos out there of whlte ppl getting on their knees and bowing down, begging for forgiveness for the sin of the colouur of their skin in front of groups of dlverse individuals.
Anyone who would willingly subscribe to such a disgustingly self-deprecating and hate-filled ideology must have some sort of mental disorder... where they lack any sort of self-respect, self-confidence and have been indoctrinated into seeing themselves as evil by nature. This is not healthy nor is it normal. Mentally healthy people don't hate themselves over their skin color. Mentally healthy people don't think they were born evil. Mentally healthy people don't think they carry the burden of the actions of their ancestors. Mentally healthy people don't work to get others to feel the same exact way. No country or group ever succeeded where its people hated themselves and were riddled with self-loathing and shame.
And what is all the more frightening is that this sick ideology continues to spread and be preached by the priestly class who hope that you'll get down on your knees and beg to them for forgiveness. However, many people are too scared to speak out against it, and fall in line because they are afraid of what the new Stasilike cultural police will do to them if they stand up for themselves. We literally live in an age where people are encouraged to turn each other in for non-compliant behavior and alert each other if they have too much "privelag

I spent 2 hours today finding and documenting all the medical and mental disorders tricia has claimed to have. Please click this link to view the entire document of what I have so far.
IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD - PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS POST OR MESSAGE ME SO I CAN ADD IT. I have also been putting sources with all of my findings - so if you could include that as well that would be AMAZING!
Edit : spellcheck & fixed link
Like if I had adhd or bipolar or anything else, Iβm sure life would be still hard but I wouldnβt be ashamed of my mental disorder as much as I am now. Does that make sense?
My picks would include Taxi Driver, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and Memento. And on a lighter, more underrated film, Park Chank-Wook's I'm a Cyborg, But That's Okay. What are some your choices? Please elaborate why if possible.
A lot of people nowadays claim they have a mental health disorder just by relating themselves to a symptom, how easy are people to jump into conclusions? I think the main reason for this stems to the fact that people want to feel included or rather be pitied. I feel as though no one is neurotypical in this day and age. Not trying to belittle anyone, I know some people are really suffering, but for some they make their problems bigger than they are and hold on to them.
I don't make this to offend anyone. I really don't have an opinion on whether it's either way. But I've seen a lot of this stuff kinda pop up as I grew up. Binaries, gender norms, gendered clothing?, and all these new pronouns and stuff.
I'm just not sure. I can wrap my head around AGAB and how that could be something more than a chemical imbalance in the brain. A lot of this other stuff kinda boggles my mind.
Of course my understanding does NOT determine the legitimacy. And I do my best to respect people. I believe in love over all things. I will call anybody whatever they tell me to call them.
But sometimes I worry that we're completely mind-fucking an entire generation, and we will never recover.
I have a mental disorder, I canβt think of any other way to describe it that doesnβt minimize the the suffering it causes. Thereβs nothing wrong with having a mental disorder, and destigmatization is important, but being all like βbut thereβs nothing wrong with meβ doesnβt help anyone with GD. If there was nothing wrong we wouldnβt need medical treatment, which we do.
