America sneezed and the world caught Munchausens I just got banned from TikTok for sharing this video. I don’t blame them. It’s horrific. Did you know this? This is a stunning report by Stephanie Davies Arai (UPDATE: the report is actually by Shelley Charlesworth. Apologies, Shelley!) Did you know that the head psychologist of the Tavistock is a trans-identified male? I didn’t.
so theres a TIM in charge of kids being transed at the Tavistock - who knew..no, actually WHO KNEW? as you say this is a blatant conflict of interests and he should be removed immediately - let him sue them - more and more its so obvious that these men and their handmaids want to erase homosexuals and produce a collection of sterile and stuck in limbo forever kids - wonder why?
Horrifying. All of it. And you're right. A person experiencing delusions who believes in their delusions and is in favour of promoting those deluisions is not the right person to tell other people how to manage delusions.
A true and genuine belief in transology is a mental disorder as it does not equate to reality. It is no different from the psychosis of other mental health disorders. Psychosis meaning the person is detached from external reality. Exactly the case with those who actually believe in transology
There can be great value in a person who experiences schizophrenia speaking up about their lived experiences. Sometimes persons with mental disorders work well in the field of mental health, including as peer workers. I used to know a senior mental health support worker who experienced schizophrenic episodes, and talked about it at workshops for our benefit. He worked at a large organisation in Ipswich (Queensland, not UK). However, he wasn't trying to preach that experiencing psychosis is a normal way to function in life. He managed his condition without promoting the deeply harmful idea that we should be encouraging psychotic delusions in others. He was an example of a person with a mental illness who has a lot to offer others with that mental illness.
However, I also used to work with a lovely lady (no sarcasm intended she really was lovely) who experienced psychosis fairly regularly when stressed, including the delusions that she could talk to the dead and could predict the future. She was anti medication and did not accept the diagnosis of schizophrenia. She managed her condition reasonably well considering and had a lot of insights to offer. However, she also had Anosognosia.
Anosognosia is a lack of ability to perceive the realities of one's own condition or accept that your condition matches a formal diagnosis. When working with a person with anosognosia you work around it as best you can. For example, I was able to convince her to go to her GP to discuss her meds by not arguing with her belief at all, nor agreeing that she was right, but by pointing out the practical benefits to doing so, which included being able to get her GP to sign off on an NDIS plan we were working on. You might say to someone with anosognosia "Look, it'll help keep them off your back if you take these pills, and at least then you can get peace to go to the movies like you want to" rather than arguing with them.
But what you must also never do is validate the delusion., no matter how tricky that might sometimes be.
It would be EXACTLY as dangerous to put this woman in charge of diagnosing people experiencing psychosis in an Acute Care team as it is having a transologist in charge of diagnosing dysphoric children.
Again, it is not controversial to say that any person who actually believes in a delusion and favours validating and promoting delusions is NOT a person to be offering medical advice to young people at risk of becoming delusional. You're absolutely right.
A propos of nothing, here are some words I am now completely allergic to, dogwhistles for wokebro neckbeard misogynistic synthetic leftists:
Binary
Non-binary
Gender
Gender fluid
Fluid
Inclusive
Diverse
Rainbow (more the symbol than the word though)
Identify
Identify as
Queer
Progressive
Just a few years ago I was working with a man who identified as trans and would have been labelled progressive by anyone centrist or further right.
I was born and raised in abject poverty in Scotland, hated the Tories with a passion, have never referred to Margaret Thatcher as anything other than that psychopathic **** Thatcher the Milk Snatcher, travelled the world equally distrusting all right manifestations of policitics and have never gone near voting right until last year.
I used to love ABC comedy here, now I won't watch it. They have expanded assisting vulnerable groups to get a leg up and being respectful of differences to mean grovelling, pandering and kowtowing to the extremely non-vulnerable group of "trans" identified men and being terrified to offend any one of them (though you can't help offending them by existing in reality as we know it).
The synthetic left have gobbled up actually left wing people and excreted them. I'll never vote Labor or Labour again as long as Iive, will never forget their treachery towards my half of the human race.
If I have to look at another smug, conceited white man (or woman) pretending he's somehow better than the right wing, who at least acknowledge we're women while they're trying to steal our bodily autonomy, I might actually scream.
We were researching a place to live in Tassie on Homely and it said "don’t seem to like change in the way of progression. Lovely & very friendly people but not very inclusive long term" and I thought oh THANK GOD FOR THAT! At least I know where I am with bogans, their men don't slap on lippy and demand entrance to the ladies bog at the RSL.
This rant brought to you by being two minutes in to the Melbourn Lockdown Comedy Festival on Stan, hearing the words non-binary and instantly turning it off.
That poor, poor, vulnerable child...Watching this breaks my heart. That woman does not deserve to be called a mother, she and her two encouraging friends are like a coven of dangerous & glib witches that need to be kept away from children, adolescents and gullible adults. I cannot understand why you were blocked for posting this reality, but thank you for doing so. Hopefully, broadcasting it will educate and highlight some of the horror.

Did you get banned from TikTok just for sharing that video? Or was it because of a comment you added?
And what programme is that video clip from?
It certainly is horrific. The boundary issues, and the thought of the extreme nature of this surgery. Utterly depressing.
