Does conversion therapy or talk therapy actually help to get rid of tranny thoughts, i feel like it could work for me
>>
>>42780075
No
If that worked, then everyone would do it
>>
>>42780075
it’s impossible to find conversion therapy that isn’t religious and talk therapy is just a circle jerk for cis women
>>
>>42780075
No
>>
no
take your HRT, retard
>>
>>42780075
No.
And if you're at the point where that's a serious thought in your head then you need to start coming up with a transition plan.
It's transition or die.
>>
They did it to me, it just fucks up your entire brain, AND you will still be trans
>>
If it worked then docs would be doing it instead
>>
>>42780075
yes but you have to actually try
>>
different question (not OP)
does talk therapy actually help with non-tranny shit? if you're a tranny who's fine with that but has a bunch of non-tranny problems to deal with also?
>>
>>42783931
therapy is brainwashing
of course it doesn't do shit
>>
>>42783931
depends on you and your shrink
but at a minimum having someone to talk to about your problems is good for you
>>
>>42783931
I've been doing it, I started with an AI which was absolutely super helpful, though the tech still ain't there. Then I switched to a human to help deal with the not stop downpour of trauma that is existing while trans, and he's gotten me over some humps and through some tough spots.

Whether it's talk therapy or CBT or whatever, having professional support available, really helps.
>>
>>42783931
In my experience it depends on where you live.

In England, professionals are taught that being trans is inherently bad and all problems come from that. So even if you say "my problem is X", they will always bring it back to being trans.

Other countries probably have better support but UK is shit

my dog's name is also rudy :)
>>
>>42783941
well duh
>>42783951
well yeah
>>42783997
see that's precisely what i'm afraid of. broken arm shit. i'm american fwiw (blue city in a red state).
i get the sense i'd have to sift through like 5000 people who try to bring it all back to my being a tranny
either from a transphobic perspective ("have you tried... not being a tranny? you say you tried that already? have you tried... trying doing it again but BETTER this time?")
or from some kind of woke-affirmative perspective that misses just as hard in the other direction
before finding anyone i could actually talk to
>>42784001
that's fantastic anon. pet him for me (unless he's asleep or smth, dont wake him up cause of some idiot online)
>>
That's not what talk therapy means, it just means having someone (with a psych degree) to talk to, and it has nothing to do with being or not being trans.

You hit the nail on the head. Are there good counsellors/ therapists/ psychiatrists who could help? Yes. But its like dating, be prepared to go through hundreds.

These people are trained to abuse us, they have an answer for everything, and even if you counter them, they'll just stop seeing you, their goal is to detransition us. Im 14 years hrt, and this evil psychologist said "so you think you're a woman".

I was upset because i lost my job, nothing to do with being trans. Be really careful, they prey on vulnerable people
>>
>>42784132
i don't think they think it's trans related, they're just wondering if dysphoria is the kind of thing that can be talked through/away like that
>>
>>42780075
no

What did they do? 0_0
In what way does it fuck with your brain?
>>
>>42784619
Makes you associate being trans with being a pervert. Feel deep shame. Also put me on anti psychotics which made me a zombie. Run away.
>>
>>42784652
nta but OMG I AM SO SORRY THAT HAPPENED TO YOU.
You know they were wrong? Right? You're not a pervert you're just a girl who had the misfortune of being born trans.
>>
>>42784652
I see, so basically it's similar to effects of anti-LGBT bullying (except the meds). So fucked up that "therapy" leads to exact thing that malicious activities do.
In what way did the antipsychotics make you feel like a zombie? I'm mostly asking because in my life there's someone who insists that I'd be fixed by them if I took them, so I want to know what it's like, so I could understand just how bad that suggestion is.
I hope you can heal from the experience. You're not a pervert or wrong for being trans.

Therapy does not work except as a means to get things off your chest to someone who is legally obligated to not tell anyone. It will not fix dysphoria
>>
>>42780075
If it worked it would be more popular, if punishment and shame made people not do things there wouldn't be crime
>>
>>42784683
Its pretty shit, repressed for years. Got brain damage from the meds. Thats why trans healthcare for teens is v improant, ending up like me is no good, i wouldnt wish being me on any trans person

>>42784721
Meds just make your thinking extremely slow. You lose your train of thought. Shirt term memory goes, constant fatigue. Nothings funny, nothing is sad, no emotions, zombie mode. And if you dont take them the headcahes are so severe and awful.

No good, none of its good. Glad i still got the chance to transition but i wish i passed and i wish i had done this ealier and never listend to those doctors
>>
>>42780075
nope with an asterisk
if it's fetish + mental illness talk therapies can stop it being intrusive/life affecting
if you are trans then the only proven effective treatment is hormone replacement, with some soft science wank showing changes to social presentation can help
>>
>>42780075
Yea. You just need to come to terms with the fact youre male and males cant be females. You are free to be a girly male or whatever you think women do that gets you upset you cant do as a male, but you will be a male doing it.
>>
>>42780075
it doesn't
