Why it's now "normal" to be mentally ill?

[Eazy]

Why do some people try "gender ideology" or other things to be something acceptable? It's a mental illness, nothing more, nothing less. People should try to treat them, not saying that they have to be "proud of it and need to express themselves".

Here are examples:
52 y/o man thinks that he's a 6y/o girl.

One of the nation’s largest public school systems is preparing to include gender identity to its classroom curriculum, including lessons on sexual fluidity and spectrum – the idea that there’s no such thing as 100 percent boys or 100 percent girls.

The moment this happens and I have children IF I have the option I'm moving the next best place that won't brainwash children into thinking it's normal to be mentally ill as you say.

Well at first I thought this was going to be a serious thread. Nope just a forbidden topic.

[Gandrake]

i think somewhere along the line somebody thought depression was just being sad and stuff for no reason and then just started calling whatever stupid idea or weird thought they had an illness to make a joke out of it all

Why do you care one way or another?

Because it drastically is changing in a way it will affect my future.

Everyone is a special little snowflake and we should nurture that as much as we can. Crap eggs on a painting? YOUR AN ARTIST! Freak of nature? YOUR THE ELEPHANT MAN! Grown men wanting to be 6 year old girls? Your a bit confused BUT ITS OK!

We are not cattle. Repeat after me: we are not one big leader following herd.

I thought this topic was not allowed on the forum?

On topic, it's not a mental illness. Mental illness would be GAD, OCD, Bipolar and all that can be fixed through long therapies and in some cases, medicine. You cannot fix someone with a different gender identity through therapy or pills. Simple.

The next generation does think it is normal, meaning in 15-20 years you will see a massive increase in crazy people thinking they are something they ain't.

You can, by not enforcing it and moving on.

Its not, but it seems gen-ot people go through phases of trying to post forbidden topics for some reason.

I do not think you as someone who clearly has no psychological background are qualified to make such assessments, really.

You can treat anything with pills. Just because a mental illness doesnt have one signed specially for it doesnt mean its not a mental illness. And figure that, treating MENTAL illness with PILLS? Whats in those pills? Psychology? Or is it a sedative designed to chill the brain out? Like a pill that can chill the women brain part.

I hate how far left wackos use gender politics to try to encroach on the spaces of the genuinely mentally ill. They only serve to further stigmatize people who actually need help. Some examples of what I am taking about are otherkin and the "body positivity" shit.

Luckily the mainstream hasnt been exposed to that much yet

Anti-Social Personality Disorder(Psychopathy/Sociopathy) can't be cured with pills or through therapy either. I'm not saying gender confusion is a mental illness, just pointing out your flawed opinion.

The real question is: Do they have a legit sounding name for it? Something like korasiohexaeto* sexual or something like that ? .


*sorry, I can't do ancient Greek for shit anymore these days.

Because parts of society has pushed idea that being handicapped is something to be celebrated. It started out as a way to help legitimately disadvantaged people, but like any movement it can be hijacked by opportunists.

Body dysmorphia is the exact same thing. Do we chop of someone's arms and blind them simply because they believe that their arms are not their arms and their eyes are not their eyes?

No. We reinforce the fact that it is their arms and we help them cope with that fact. By cutting off their arms and gouging out their eyes, you take their internal, personal conflict and you past it on their forehead making it everybody's problem.

Arms and Eyes are fairly important to living, and without those a person is crippled in functioning in life. I can't think of much outside sex that a penis is useful for, and breasts are pointless from a functional standpoint if the person doesn't want to breast feed. Unless we are talking some "greater good" here, losing those two body parts does not hinder a person's life.

Because it isn't normal to mentally ill? If you think you are another gender, that isn't really a mental illness, nor is it really to act like a kid. It is seen as a fetish among some people. Of course, could be considered a mental illness if you didn't know what it was about with the person and his surroundings so we can't really write off the father's situation. Though, I wouldn't compare all those situations with people having a mental illness.

Mass narcissism. It was easier to ignore before the internet but it's been around since the advent of television, possibly radio.
