LilFozzyJ5 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Also someone who makes a distinction between a 'serious medical condition' and mental illness is ignorant. Mental Illness IS a serious medical condition. 1 Link to comment

Dill_Pickle Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Wow: 50% of TG teens try suicide by their 20th birthday, at least once! Link to comment
Elfy Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I would suggest it's less about the TG teens and more to do with the reactions they face from others... Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I think a question was aimed at me. Link to comment

Bettypooh Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Lets see, the Cops say her purse was not taken but it was just a robbery and had nothing at all to do with Transphobia Sadly that kind of crap happens more often that not because the Cops don't want to deal with the truth- even they harbor some hate Link to comment
Dill_Pickle Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Elfking, American society as a whole is hostile to anyone who is "different"! Link to comment
ruuuuuuuuu1 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 maybe a suicide link or teli number can help hear? maybe that can be put on here on this site for all to see. Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Any law needs to be well thought out (which isn't the norm but that is another topic). And the law and society gives licensed Doctors a little more leeway to work with. For instance, if your doctor deems that you are a threat to yourself or society at large they can invoke legal action whereas only a parent otherwise could. Perhaps that could have happened here, but a clearer law with clearer intent would make that more likely to happen. I hate the idea of more andmore and more laws but sometimes better than what we have is what is needed and that is how it's done:rolleyes: Link to comment

spoonchicken Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Dill, have you also posted that link in the Depression Forum? Possibly a good idea to do so Link to comment
Kodachi96 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 You can give a whole bunch of information and the web is full of it. The thing is that you can't make people take in that information. It's like the bible thumpers that come to the door and say you need to believe in God. You can lead a horse to water, you can't make it drink. Link to comment
